There is some awesome history behind Wayne Meli’s Grumpy Jenkins tribute car. It was built by Mike Valerio for Bob Hiner and Jerry Miller. We had the chance to get an up close look at the car when we got Wayne, Mike and Bob’s son, Michael Hiner, together at the track! | NHRA

Bill Jenkins aka Grumpy as we all know had a bunch of race cars over the years and some of them are lost to time. This car, Toy IV, was one of them. Bill ordered a Butternut Yellow L89 1968 Camaro. He later repainted the car white. Bill sold Toy IV to Rufus Boyd aka Brooklyn Heavy in late 1970 and Carmen Rotonda maintained the car and drove it. #legend #dragracing #legends | Insect Racing
