At this writing, Richard & Liz Charbonneau and current owner Dean Carlson are all gathered at Pomona to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Richard’s Stock Eliminator victory. Charbonneau’s psychedelically hued 1967 427 Ford Fairlane station wagon was displayed in the Mecum Auctions display throughout the weekend and it participated Sunday’s race day parade activities. After that, “Trip-1” (as it is known,) was put on display for the next six months inside the Wally Parks-NHRA Motorsports Museum.
