My First street car - a 1969 Mercury Cougar, 351 Windsor, 4 barrel carb, Auto Trans, Hideaway headlights, Power Steering, Power Brakes, A/C, Am radio, Blue with a Vinal Top. The only modifications were  70 series tires.  I purchased it needing a fender, hideaway headlights/ doors, and a front bumper.  I forget what I had to spend in total, maybe somewhere around $750.00

My First time in a race car was at Taylorville Illinois in an exhibition race, the car was loaned to me for the event by a local who raced in the  Bomber Division. 

My first time in a Sportsman was a car, I helped put together with Stan Malamut Jr. I eventually took over owning the car and raced it several times. The frame and body came from Wayne Bachman #18 out of the Hawthorn NJ area.
