Title: J&J Walla Walla , Washington Post by: empiracer on April 30, 2013, 04:14:57 am I picked this up at a swap about a year ago, It is an earlier wide spring decklid. I would love to find some history. Anyone recognize it ?

The car eventually got way into the 11's before a new one was built. I will try to get photos for you ;)
