Lennie "Pop" Kennedy and the Buicks

Hello all-

I just posted this on the Reynolds Buick blog- it's a history written by Jim Bell in September of 1980.

It's in Jim's own words. Might be worth checking out:

Thanks for sharing that. Buick history is cool to read about.

 

Great read, thank you!

 

1000 cfm Thermoquad?! That's the first I've heard of that . . . thought it was an 850 Holley?!

Talking about the '70 car of course.

 

Thanks for sharing that:TU:

 

I have.
Remember, this was a test car for Kenne-Bell products after it was a test car for Buicks Stage2 program.

Cool read Jeff. I think I have that news letter somewhere.

 

AWESOME read - thanks for sharing it.

Who - out of your typical fri nite cruise-in crowd - would believe an old guy and his BUICK cleaned up all the competition year after year ?

This needs to be published - with the official records - in something like Hemmings Muscle Machines

 

:gp:

I couldn't agree more. Great story.:TU:

This was published in the GSXtra a couple of months ago.

 

Worth another read:gp:

Great read, Thanks When I got my first 65 Skylark in 69 I heard about Kennedy-Bell and wrote to them for tips to perk up my 300. Got a return letter with two stickers and a phone number. When I called I talked to Pops. He asked about my car and gave me some great advise. Super nice guy!!!!
