I'm sure he said "Owanda", but he's not the kind of
guy to really know a lot about cars, either.

I gave an older fellow a ride in my '71 Chevelle this
afternoon. He started telling me about his two '69s he used to
have. The one he talked the most about was an SS396. He said
that on the air cleaner lid, it said something like "Owanda Racing", and on
the underside of one valve cover it said "Owanda Racing" or "GM Racing" and
"Tonowanda." I know Tonowanda was an engine factory, but I didn't know
anything about the rest of it.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? I got the
feeling it may have been 20 years since he owned the car, so he could have
gotten some of the facts mixed up since then...
He probably meant "Tonowanda" when he said "Owanda"
You probably just heard him wrong, but hell if I know
