The Pure Heaven II is of the most famous and successful fuel altereds of all time. Leon Fitzgerald along with partners Richard Rockman and RT Reed ran the Pure Heaven II from 1966 to 1969. It was a threat to win whenever it raced. In 1968, Fitzgerald organized the US Fuel Altered Tour which took altereds to places they had never been seen. The tours were successful for Fitzgerald and the Pure Heaven II. Leon got the Pure Heaven to run sevens by 1969. He replaced the famous red, white, and blue Bantam with a new car in 1970. Bob Nylander came and restored the Pure Heaven II altered to its original condition in the mid-eighties with several drivers taking turns behind the wheel of the little Bantam. Howard Haight ran a great 7.10 in the Pure Heaven as its best ever run to date. In 2008, Fitzgerald teamed with Jeff and Chris Bennett to race the Pure Heaven V, a late model altered.
