When they raced real cars

This pic shows 4 different body styles. And I'm sure the body's have been massaged to be better than stock. Still it's easy to tell what kind of cars they are. Left to right. Front to back. Bobby Issacs in Bud Moore's RC Cola Torino. Richard Petty in the Petty Enterprises STP Charger. David Pearson in the Wood Brothers Purolator Mercury Montego & the other car appears to be a Luguna/Malibu. Doesn't ring a bell

My how far they have come

Petty team getting down & dirty. They say you have to earn your stripes. These guys did & it paid off

Frank Warren

Augusta Georgia's Frank Warren. He always ran Mopars. Long time veteran independent who ran on a low & modest budget.

Maybe Donnie Allison in the DiGard 88?

Yep that's it. I forgot all about Donnie. Good job!

 

[Rwc]

Donnie sure could wheel a car. Really dIverse career

 

[C Body Bob]

Yes he was underrated

Check out Allison's arm in the window. The times they have sure cnanged. Those were men. Most of the guys that race today would never be able to live and succeed In a "run what ya brung" race world.

Pearson, Petty & Issacs

Chatting it up. Judging by the Ford behind them I'm going to say this pic is 68 or 69

Issacs & Cale Yarborough

Sometime around 72-74. Pretty sure Cale is standing on a tire here.
