so how many of you guys know me? why guess? just call or write me directly. i promise you the cancer hasnt killed me yet nor has it rotted my memory.

sonic cuda is not a car i looked for nor a car i cared to learn more about. though that photo of it on this thread showing it at a new car show circa 72? may have changed my mind. while on the hunt for the 1970 rts rrunner i was told the car was painted black and in a town named lake orion, mi. i never pursued that lead.

if one of you finds it promise me a photo please.

(please someone post this on that hamb site.)

when is the show thats honoring chuck miller? hes one very cool guy. my first ever conversation with him was about rts signage. i called and asked if he had any old posters and se said "NO. ALL I HAVE IS THIS F-ING CHICKEN HEAD CAR" he was referring to the rts 71 runner.

wingcar dave can post a pic if you dont know what car that is.
Ok enough babbling.....back to getting "nursed" back to health. (terry and alan are laughing

If this helps.
Jerry Pennington of Warren MI won the Sonic Cuda from the ISCA in 1974. He received the keys from Mert Dunker.

The Sonic Cuda was designed by Harry Bentley but built by Chuck Miller.

(P43 Hot Rod Show World 1974)
Remember where you got this information.

Lets hope with Steves and V194 info the car will be found

Pennington Collision is still in business in Troy,Michigan and it's still family owned. Probably worth a call
