Thats about all I could find for 1966 in the Greg Fielden Stock car racing book

I'll have to scan the photo I'm talking about later.  It's a 66 Coronet but I can't make out the drivers name on the door and I couldn't find it anywhere else.

Might have been from the '67 or even '68 series??  The body styles had a 3 year lifespan in NA$CAR back then.

[69_500]

They still do have a 3 year life span. That is until now when they use only the COT.

[Ghoste]

This car.

[Aero426]

This car.

Looks like Andy Hampton, at Daytona.  Probably ARCA.

[Ghoste]

Okay, thanks Doug. 

[nascarxx29]

1965 Coronet isnt it

[Ghoste]

Yes.  Yes it is.  I deserve to be slapped for that.
Thank you.


(I did notice the custom 1/4 panel work if there is any redemption in that??)

[Big Sugar]

Yes.  Yes it is.  I deserve to be slapped for that.
Thank you.

Probably just a friendly From Behind Shawn.

Got a call from a old friend about some parts I had on ebay. And we got talking about the old days. Any way I sent him the picture of this car. And he told me a world of information about it. He built it In 65 At Nichels, for Bobby Isaac and They ran about 16 races with it. The car was sold and raced in 66 Marcum series-ARCA . He said that several different drivers raced it in 66. Then bought by Cotton Owens and raced in 67.    John
