I'm sure most of the original car is gone and been changed over the years, but I had to help them out with the brakes and some clutch issues. It still looks the same and runs and drives, the owner is wanting to take it and do some vintage type road racing or something with it (not serious racing).
    Definitely, the RYR teams led by McReynolds/Parrot were on top of the coil bind/bump stop setups!

        it is on the right front of a dirt late model, which is basically what the original poster asked, when he said right front , that's what you would think of, not nascar ,

          Ray Evernham was the first to master the bump stop in NASCAR and put the term on the map. How else could it be explained that Kasey Kahne could win 6 races in one season?
