Eddie did show me years ago that the rear wheel openings were patched back in stock.It didn't look to be radically altered like the AF/X were.

I often wondered whose car Billy had. I never put two and two together even after seeing the Butler bars. I always thought it was a Barnett built car. Billy ran a few different paint jobs on that car as well.

Bob,

Just to put a time line on it, did Diehl have the Butler built car before or after Bagwell?

That looks like it could be BG standing behind the car in the blue shirt.

I know the Bagwell Red car and the Leal 65 A990 from the 70's is the same car, but is the Bagwell Blue car the same?

Shirl Greer's A-990 Coronet did not retain its factory built sheetmetal for very long.

This is how it looked towards the end of the 1966 racing season.
