When you pair a 409/409 Chevy motor with the likes of Bill 'Grumpy' Jenkins and Dave Stickler, you get a combination that could only lead to victory.
In the early days of A/FX racing, different combinations were tried and tested on racetracks each weekend. Chevy was a formidable contender with its 409 engine. And, with Bill Jenkins doing the tuning and Dave Strickler driving, Chevy had a winning team.
The story has it that Strickler was racing around Pennsylvania when he bumped into Jenkins. After discussing a carburetion problem, they decided to collaborate. And, as they say, the rest is history. The 'Old Reliable' story, with many iterations, continued for many years.
Dave Strickler is remembered as a tireless racer who played a very important role in the early years of A/FX racing.Source - Vehicle Owner
