Wayne Gapp and the first Maverick
Here we see a fairly rare picture. This is a picture of Wayne Gapp and the 1971 Maverick. He tells me that he and Bill Jameson built just before Roush came on board.
During this time WG was the Ford’s lead engineer for the Boss 429 in NASCAR and Drag Racing applications.

1973 Bristol – Wayne Gapp and Bill Jameson
The picture below is a fairly typical scene. My Dad (right) refers to Bill (left) as what the teams call today the ‘Crew Chief’. This image was taken by Kenneth Wilkins @ Bristol in 1973.
FYI – Kenny owns the ‘Country Shindig’ Maverick, one of my favorite non-Gapp & Roush cars.
Wayne Gapp and the Super Cat
The caption reads:
“Wayne Gapp’s Super Cat Cougar put away big, closely matched gas “funny” field, due mainly to Gapp’s fine driving.”.
