I have recently picked up the Karl Gould / Tim Richards hemi car and I are looking for some of the "in the day" race shots of this car.
I have gotten 5 or 6 pics off of the other threads about this car, But I'm now searching leads on possible photographs that may be out there from days gone by shot by armature photographers , I was lucky enough to find actual footage of this car making passes back at York 30 dragway .
our plans are to bring this car back to the "as raced " look of 1970. (see attached pic)
This car was on display at Don Garlits this a couple weeks ago , it was a "hit among the cars there.... we actually took both our white car, our red car and this one..... this car got 3 times the attention than the other cars..lol
lastly I'm looking for the original hemi that went in this car... it was pulled with less that 10 miles on it.... Tim Richards told me he thinks it was sold to the Late Bob Chipper from Binghamton NY. ( a fellow drag racer) . the engine's/car's vin is 161573.
I am willing to pay a $1000.00 finders fee if I am able to find the current owner , and BUY the engine.
Bob chipper died in 2012, so I'm now looking for some of His racer friends.
* I have found out recently that the motor may have or still is in a cuda from Georgia.
any help on chasing history of this car would be much appreciated.
So, can any of you guys help in my search for pics of this one?
