Headed to Batavia, New York today! Got the trailer in tow and all ready to pick up this beauty!

 

Oh my, that looks AWESOME!!

 

Sweet! Can't wait to hear the details.

 

Dave Laur's old race. It was one of the fastest in its day. I saw at the Miller meet at Norwalk many times. It ended up in the bean field once. Lots of nitrous went thru that car.

 

Headed home!

 

Go to polkadots for lunch and get the beef and weck

 

Beef & what?

 

Weck its a type of roll native to that area.

 

I was like what the weck is that????! Lol

 

"weck" is short for kimmelweck, essentially a German word for Kaiser roll. A very western New York thing, and it is also actually the third "W" in the restaurant name "BW3", better known as Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck and now called simply Buffalo Wild Wings.

Thats a tough lookin car!

 

Awesome score !!!!!

At Dave's shop!



Nothing says bad *** like a parachute strapped to your ride!



Dave was very gracious and is a great guy! He truly bleeds Oldsmobile! I know it was tough for he and Shannon to let her go!



Loaded for the 7hr trip home!



Stuffed into my little two bay garage! Hopefully my 71' isn't jealous!

 

Thanks Bernhard! I am stoked to own the car but am just as stoked to learn the history behind it! Truly a car of historic proportions!

 

Very nice, do you suppose you could share the weight and best E.T?

 

Car weight is 3050 and best ET with Dave Behind the wheel was 8.26@163 and change I believe!
