stock eliminater 409s

[hrlykngt]

I have heard my dad tell of his experiences with the 409s and 61&62s back in his drag racing days. He mechaniced on a 62 409 that one stock eliminater in 63 at the andalusia, alabama dragstrip. The driver and car owner was Ken Brown. He also raced succesfully a 61 409 car around Alabama. Does anyone have any old pics or know more info. Also when asked about the Z11 my dad remembered a racer named Ken Simpson whom he thought raced a 63 Z11 named Daddy Rabbit. Any info on these will be apreciated.

thanks

PS
Dad remembers a heads up race between the 62 and the Z11 the Z11 broke an axle and the guy borrowed a pontiac from someone to run him again and the old 62 409 wupped him.

After my last posting, I remembered that the Z11 car may have been called The Little General The daddy rabbit car may have been a 55 chevy. I would love to know what became of the 63 Z11.
