Comments: "Don't Monkey with Strunkey"

Got to meet Nate Strunk last year (2008) ago at the NOTARC Banquet held in Flemington, NJ.  Let him know how cool I thought the # xXx was when I was a kid (for obvious reasons!)

I remember Nate mostly driving a sedan in the Sportsman division, but looking at this little coupe above, I gotta say, it's one of the nicest, well balanced little coupes that I've seen.  The way the body sits, white wheels... simple 2 color scheme...  Wow - what a great looking car!  Not sure if this one was built from scratch or if it saw the track with a different paint job at one time or another, but it's a beauty!

09.27.09 Paul Madsen The xxx was a former Rusty Bowlby 96 which was one of the first profile chassis.
09.28.09 Bill Walker I had the opportunity to spend a few days with Nate during the Flemington 4H Fair week this year at the Flemington Reunion tent. He's actively looking for this car to restore for the vintage circuit. From what he told me this was the former Rusty Bowlby #96 coupe. If anyone has any info on this car get in touch with Clint Bush or Wyatt Jacobus and they'll get info to him, or post on 3W message board. He's a great guy and it would be a wonderful to put him back together with his former ride.
