have been involved in racing forever.....their collection is unreal...this is just a part of it...they just got a Jimmy Spencer's Target stock car..As I
have said, this is a great place to stop and look around...it is free..(Kaserman photos)
The new 7-11 has been stripped of it’s old flanks and is in the process of getting new panels made thanks to Tobi Smith..Frame has been painted and very
old damage to the back end fuel tank safety bars has been completed..Fuel tank has been restored and new cell foam installed..Larry has been in contact
with Northern Hall of Fame inductee Bob Polverari, who is very excited over the new recreation and has supplied Larry with numerous pictures of his 1980
season paint scheme, which he carried over through the 1985 season..(Larivee photos)
Spy photos have found the soon to be transformed ’80 modified just picked up by Larry Larivee. This old Plymouth Horizon TC3
will soon be the new 7-11 in it’s white and blue paint scheme. Larry and Tobi Smith of 2X fame ventured up into the high
country of North Carolina to scope out this barn find. Both were a bit tired after Tobi’s race at NSS only to get home and
jump into larry’s truck for the overnite run. Larry promises updates to the car as he progresses with its transformation.
Stay tuned!
