:D:DThanks for the update. I was at Barnes and Noble last week and they said at that time about the middle of September. Looking forward to adding this book to my rapidly expanding library of car books.

I bought a copy and it seems to be very good overall, although I'm far too young (53) to have any first hand knowledge. I did catch a couple of errors after a quick look-thru; Dave Duell being named Doug (his son) in a caption and a mention that Pete Kost no longer raced. Lots and lots of great photos. I think there are even some obscure cars in there as well, and some "hitters" that probably should have been in there, but aren't, probably due to photo availability. It would be cool to see a follow-up 1972-up book in the not-to-distant future.

Amazon contacted me by email and said that they will ship the preorders this week. It is alittle late, but I enjoy that period of NHRA stocker action and I am sure that it will be worth the wait.

:D My copy arrived about an hour ago. Guess what I have been doing? (I am retired) Lots of cool pictures and looks to be a very well done book. I will take time to read it very soon. I am sure, as with all books of this nature, you can always find an error or two. The time and effort to do this must be extreme, at the least. I, too, wish there would be a follow-up book covering the 1972 and later years. The effort to do so would, no doubt, be overwhelming. Anyway, get a copy if you enjoy these years, as it looks to be a great book to have.

I seriously doubt it cause I've never seen one but somebody told me there was a picture of my black 66 W30 in there from the Nascar Winter Nationals in Daytona Beach in 67 or 68 can't remember. If so sure would like to see that. Can't find that damn book anywhere. Thanks, Danny

Thanks, No lettering plain black -----On starting line at night final round heads up with Silver 67 z28 named The Assassin out of Honest Charley Speed Shop in Tenn. Thanks for looking but didn't have much hope ---probably mistook it for the one you saw. The original photos were taken by a friend that passed away years ago and his family probably threw them away. At least I still have the car. Thanks again-------Danny
