Here's one with Ronnie Sox in front of their Sox & Martin B029 '68 Hemi Barracuda...take a real good look at that front end, can you spot anything unusual....I'll let Paul C fill you in.

Moose,,,,,,,,,,,Excellent photo from early-1968

The #1 BO29,,,,,,,,,

The front bumper was twisted on that car.
The front left (driver side) section was twisted upwards.

The hood & grille paint scheme on that car was changed a few times.

Paul, did you also notice in the early pic's of Sox & Martin's '68 Hemi Barracuda #784 they went from a small Keystone decal to a larger one...and in later pic's the Keystone decal was moved to the front of the fender.

Never,ever saw this one.
Anyone have anything more on it it?
I thought all the Billy Stepp stuff was later model.

Charlie, that B029 '68 Hemi Barracuda was originally Billy 'The Kid' Stepp's car...it was later bought by Sox & Martin and repainted in their red white & blue colors...it is still around and making the car show circuit, ( I think it's the same car that I posted that link earlier.)

I know that Stepp had a rumored "mystique" (for lack of a better word) around him.
But, for the racing part of his image, he always had some of the best looking stuff out there.
