    I would have sworn that one of those could potentially be Bruno's son or Rob Chilinsky??

    As much time has passed since that 1997 show, as time passed since the end of the traditional cool car era (1974).

    Woo-hoo scored a bunch of these. So freaking cool, aside from the awfully dull bumpers. I'll have to pull out the Molotow Chrome Pen and touch em up

    My 1st thought was Jim Turner's (& Rob's) but I thought Jim had "Stage 2" fender emblems & hard to tell in the pic but that looks "Stage 1." I could be thinking of a different car too. Seems like yesterday but that was a long time ago.

    This is an old thread, but that is not Jim Turner's car, or at least not the Jim Turner from Texas. I remember back in the day that there were two Jim Turners racing Buicks, but I can't remember what car the other Jim Turner drove.

    There were also two strong running Diplomat Blue '70 GSs. Jim's Stage 2 car and someone else's Stage 1. This is the other car.

    Texas Jim Turner's car had flares over the rear tires and did not have any wheel well molding trim or rocker panel trim.
