 Can you name off those guys? Who's that guy on the ground (looks like he stumbled and fell?)  That's Bill "Hippie" McMillan on the ground...the two guys on the left are not DKP guys...the thin, bond guy is Steve "Mr Music" Likus and Sergio "Pepina" Rampone in the red tennies. |

I'm thinking Bud Whitfield drove it. thanks again for sharing, does this car have windows. it doesn't seem to have any...

is that the first version or the second who was chopped I think it was the same car Fabs, just chopped later and the top half painted black. The pictures I've seen show the same cut down rear wings, and it's definately an oval too. |
