Before I leave '62 models, I'll mention Max Sterling's D/S "White Lightning". Max also had a '61, & a '71 Bird using that same name.

I'll begin the '63 models with the Winter Nats winning '63 A/FX Tempest.

While there, I'd better include one of the A/FX wagons, driven by Arnie Beswick.

The 2nd row includes three '63 421SD cars. The first 2 are A/FX cars, driven by Arlen Vanke & Arnie Beswick. The 3rd is the Royal B/FX car, driven to the Indy class win, by Jim Wangers.

Since the '63 421SD cars were not legal for Jr. Stock classes, there were not that many of 'em on the tracks. So, for the bottom row in this post, I'll show some '64 GTO stick cars.

The 1st one is the Packer Pontiac "Pampered Papoose".

Next is the "Mystery Indian".

Last is "Underdog". As most here know, back in the old days it was quite common for drag cars to have names painted on 'em. Nowadays, lots of Stock/SS cars look like regular street cars, except for the racing wheels & tires.

I like for a race car to LOOK like one. Also like contingency decals on 'em. Just makes 'em look more serious & competitive, IMO.
