02/08/03 | Kevin N | Has to be around '76. Gils regular ride was the Gremlin. Took it to Trenton one year, ROC. The car never really performed. Dont remember the Pinto, but that is definitely Gil Hearne behind the wheel. |
02/19/03 | Bill Force | The cars were Built by Paul Blair. They were a combination of Blair/Boyce. Boyce was from the Midwest and the front was joined to the Blair. John LeVanceSr.,Tuckerton(LEMI construction) was the owner. His son John Jr drove the cars as well. They now have been totally restored by GSVSCC owner Bill Morsch. Bill Force lettered the cars and drives the Gremlin. The Pinto x5 was just finished this past year and will be out this 2003 season. They run the car at NOTARC ,GSVSCC and STAR events each year, and make the trip to the Loundon,NH mile each August. |
