Jr Stock photos from the 60's

Wow: first picture from Bob Rices collection sure brought back memories. I raced the Terry Clark A/S Chevelle -prepared by Duffys at the 1968 Super stock Nationals at Long Island N.Y.We met for the class final on Friday night and i was lucky enough to win the race. I came from near Akron Ohio to run in one of the finest stock and super stock programs (excluding the US Nat.) in the country. My car was a new 68 SS 396-375. It ran a best of 11.88 at 116mph. Not bad for the B140 7" M&H slicks at that time. The car was great until i met up with Tom Shumacher in the divisional meet in Columbus. Still looking for pictures of his 427-410???yeah right-- Ford Fairlane. All i saw were the taillights. They say a picture is worth a thousand words but the pictures that are on this page are priceless. Thanks for sharing your collection.

Danny,
Thanks for the pitch. I hope that someone will take you up on it. I'm on the hunt every day trying to find old pictures to share with guys like you and me that love the old cars.
Bob

Mike,
It's the guys like Danny Durham, George Cureton, Bill Holmes and Bill Dedman that should be thanked. I've known George since 1976 but Danny, Mr. Holmes or Mr. Dedman didn't know me from Adam and took a chance and sent me their pictures to scan and gave me permission to post them online so that everyone could enjoy them. I'm hoping that others will take that same chance. Also, I belong to a Stk/SS group on Yahoo where a lot of great old pictures are posted. Anyone interested in joining can email me at bobrice@coastalnet.com.
