Hello from So. Cal
Welcome from the Seattle area! I do remember some of Kelly's cars. I raced against his factory backed Jeep pickup.
I knew it!
I knew there was a chance on an "Excellent" site like this that someone would know who I was talking about!
That pick up is after my time, but, do you or anyone remember his Burnt Orange Dart with center lines?
340, 727, 8 3/4, etc.
That was the nicest A body in the whole area.
Here is another name for you, " Dale Green "
He worked at " Curt's Auto Parts ", in Auburn.
They had a nice clean room to do engine assembly, Dale was an expert on doing a perfect job putting an engine together.
I heard some years ago, from Kelly's brother, Scott Thomas, that Dale opened his own place.
" Dale Green Machine "..... likely in Auburn, maybe Kent.
I'll say this with "No Reservations", anyone who takes a unit there will get a job done right on the money, 100%.
That guy is does Everything as perfect as possible.
Does anyone remember the "Pepsi Challenge Car? "
I saw it at SIR back when.
