How about that #99???

[Spokes]

saw the Bodine Valiant last night at Shangri-la II, boy does that bring back memories, congratulations to Mr. Ridley on a job well done, announcer said Bodine himself is going to drive it on a pace lap at the ROC @ Oswego, how cool is that.  Also saw the Bill Wimble #33 out behind the grandstand, brought tears to my eyes thinking about all the times my mother took me to the Monroe County Fairgrounds, Wimble, Mosclow, Holiday, saw the NASCAR convertibles their too, Lee Petty, Buck Baker, man those were the days!!!

Great looking car Rip. BTW Did the original Valiant have a hand clutch like yours ?

 

[#99 Vintage Racer]

I built mine just like the pictures showed of his.  So, yes it had a hand clutch.  Boy, does that take some getting use too!
