    My dad has one of the original 64 Thunderbolt Fairlanes and I have studied the history of the cars quite a bit. That's how I first found about Don. He ran the Conner Ford Thunderbolt named "Revenge" when it was new. It was later ran under the name locally as "Blue Thunder". Don and Jack go a looooong way back. I have aquired quite a few pics of Mr. Bowles cars over the years....here's a few.
