Gene Daugherty '67 Camaro
Gene McBean '69 Mustang, bought from Tom DeCamp, bought from Jeff Velde?
Mike Wither's '69 AMX, bought from Ray Wino, bought from ??

If anyone can fill in the blanks, correct any false info, add a story, etc, feel free.

Blair Patick's present 68 mustang is Jeff Velde's old car, in which Blair purchased the car from Marvin Dunahoo who is running a mustang II in IHRA Super Stock.

I have a story on Ray Paquet's 67 Fairlane, I'll read it and find out where he purchased it from.

I bought the 69 AMX from Ray Whinery, Lisbon ohio. he was the original owner it was a factory race car delivered to Bill Swad motors in Columbus,Ohio. Ray raced it from 1969-1974. i have raced it ever since. It has never been on the street except in a trailer. For a long period of time these were the most factored cars(80hp). Originally rated 340hp factored to 420 hp

My dad took delivery of the car January 2nd 1966 (44 years ago today). It's originally a '66 427/425 4-speed car. Dad bought all the hi-performance options with the car and raced it from day one. My Mom and Dad drove the car from Pennsylvania to Florida on their honeymoon in November of '66. He converted it to a '67 in the mid-70's so he could run the automatic trans with the big block in Super Stock. My dad figures the car has more miles on it over 100 miles per hour than it does under...
