2011 Bakersfield March Meet Tony Noto Grumpy's Toy Crash
Real bummer this car crashed. Tony Noto in his 1974 Grumpy's Toy Vega Pro Stock replica. This was hands down my favorite car at the March Meet. My dad had a Popular Hot Rodding centerfold of this car in my room when I was a kid. Let's hope Tony will rebuild...I want to see more Nostalgia Pro Stock cars like this one with the vintage wheels and dry hops (something you don't see anymore).
I hope everyone likes my little Diamond P replay tribute.

A PERFECT 1963 CHEVY 409
HERE IS A RESTORED '63 CHEVY IMPALA SUPER SPORT 409. PERFECT IN EVERY WAY FRONT TO BACK, TOP TO BOTTOM. LOOK AT THE MIRRORS FRONT AND REAR THAT SHOW THE FLAWLESS UNDERCARRIAGE. THE INTERIOR IS ORIGINAL WITH DOOR PANEL STITCHING INTACT AND SEATS LOOKING BRAND NEW. NOTICE THE FACTORY TAG HANGING ON A DASHBOARD KNOB. THE TACH LOCATED BY THE STEERING WHEEL IS FOUND ONLY ON 409'S. IN THE TRUNK IS A COPY OF A CHEVY MAGAZINE THAT FEATURED THIS CAR. THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS CLEAN ENOUGH TO EAT OFF OF. NOTICE THE AUTHENTIC GM GLASS BOTTLE OF GREEN WINDOW WASHER FLUID LOCATED TO THE RIGHT OF THE ENGINE. WHEN LOOKING UNDERNEATH AT THE REAR MIRROR, NOTICE THE SPIRAL GRAY SHOCK ABSORBERS. THESE ARE AUTHENTIC GM PARTS FOUND ON SIXTIES CHEVYS. IN THE SIXTIES THE ROCK GROUP " THE BEACHBOYS" SANG A FAMOUS SONG - THE ONLY SONG EVER MADE ABOUT A CAR ENGINE. THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF A RARE CAR BROUGHT TO YOU BY 55lincoln.
