Named after the Don Rich lyrics for Waylon Jennings song, “Sally Was A Good Ole Girl,” Sally is known as the fastest ‘32 coupe to run Bonneville with a 6 cyl. GMC dump truck motor. Allen McAlister and Doug Robinson are proud of that. They and partner Don Berg built her out of their shop, BMR Racing, where she’s stabled alongside other high performance fillies. Sally likes to set records in the 200 MPH Club because of her mystical charm. She wears the fuel filter from the Burk-Francisco belly tanker (first one to run Bonneville)-Her fastest speed is 214 and has yet to be beat.
