The Speedwin car,,,,,a beautiful restoration.
Though the original lace paint scheme was a touch bolder.

I think that is car #35 off the first run......SS/BA
Who would think it.
Car purchased in April 1968 for $5200.
Ebbets Field Dodge, Brooklyn, New York.

And no radio, heater,or back seat,,,,,,,,,GEEZ.

Was an original 4-speed car.
He ordered an automatic, but got a 4-speed.
Ran SS/B 68' and 69'.
Went to SS/BA in late-69'.
SS/AA in 1970, then into Pro/Stock.

Black roof was later changed to white.
That car sits in a garage in Connecticut,,,,,,,,,,waiting to be restored.

A Ramchargers built engine was in that car.

Here's a couple of photos from Doug Potter's collection. The "El Toro" Dart pic was taken at Bristol around 1970. I don't know anything about it. The "Rumble Bee" Dart photo was taken at the old "Drag City" track in Ringgold, Georgia about 1969. This car was owned by Thurmon Callaham at the time. I've seen other photos of the car with a different owner. I don't know where this car went after Callaham owned it.

The deal was purchaser had to change paint in some way so Pannuty removed the wide blue stripes running longways to red. Looks like SC did the same.
