Mine says Carl and Char Hirst Collection. Don't know if that is accurate?

Much thanks! I'll give that lead a chase. Maybe a watermark or signature will show up on a photo of the 69 car.

Platt campaigned two 67 Fairlanes. These images are of the first car. After he parted ways with that car, he campaigned the car with the vinyl roof. Midway through the tenure with that car the vinyl roof was removed and he continued to run the car.

The car again, with different lettering.

The other side of the Torino.

Whoa! Great shot. Any idea who the photographer was? Also, wasn't this car later converted to the 69 Drag Team car?

I'm not sure how much was changed to make it a 69. It still had the red interior and 68 rear marker lights.

The first photo may have been taken by Marty Johnson. When Hubert Platt and Harold Dutton match raced he was the south east photographer both on the ford drag team with 67 fairlanes
