This currently fresh and ready to race car was restored by Butch Gilbert.
History
Built in 1973 by Huffaker Engineering for West Coast Club racer Jerry Slick (husband to Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane fame). Slick drove the car to the West Coast Divisional Championship in 1973. The car was sold in 1974 and was garaged until the late 80's when it was purchased and restored by Butch Gilbert. Gilbert ran the car occasionally in West Coast Vintage Groups. Extensive historical documentation including period photos is available.
