POL989 - Polar Lights
Mr Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge 1969 Super Charger has a celebrated history. Debuted mid season in 1969. It replaced its two time burned out predecessor. This car was truly new from the ground up, sporting a new chassis a sper chief mechanic and driver, Gary Dyer's suggestion.
The virgin voyage took place during the Coca-Cola Cavalcade of Funny Car Championship. Despite setbacks with the previous cars, the new Supercharger, won the Championship with Gary Dyer as the driver and mechanic - quite a testament to the team's winning spirit.
In 1970 the car returned to the funny car wars with Kenny Stafford at the wheel and Gary Dyer spinning the wrenches. 1970 was a very successful year, with constant competition in match races; and many NHRA events, including the US Nationals in Indianapolis.
At the end of the 1970 season, the Super Charger was retired and parked. It stayed in Chicago in pristine condition. It is still replete with its original lettering and equipment such as tyres, wheels parachute pack and more. This car is truly a survivor and now resides in a private collection in sunny San Diego.
