The Billy Lagana “Locomotion ” was my favorite. First off, Chevy! then 409! then it was sponsered by Oak Hill Chevrolet and I went with my father to pick up his “brand new”63 Chevy Impala 283 PG coupe and saw all ther trophys on the shelf in the showroom. Those where great days. The MG ran at Dover almost weekly in 63-64

Here’s Billy’s car.
That’s my bride……..not my sister. 🙂
The other, BFX, could be one of the stockers that had some temporary mods.
