I have some pics of a '62 Pontiac with the name Wolf & McClelland over the door. Have pics with it running C/SA & D/SA.

Name not even spelled the same. So, the similarity of a Wolf '62 Pontiac to a Wolfe '69 Pontiac is probably accidental.
And Its Ben Wolf per Doug Boyce's book, same as Ben Wolf 61 Pontiac listed as winner of B/SA at 1969 Springnationals.

So either the name is spelled wrong in the article or tts a coincidence that Ben Wolf ran a Pontiac and Wilson "Sonny" Wolfe also ran a Pontiac.
Maybe coincidence.

I'm now betting the B/SA win in Spring 1969 was likely the Ben Wolf of Wolf&McClelland, since McClelland was still running the big 62 Cat in D/SA=9.00 class at the same meet (and won).
