Interesting photo. Looks like a Harrell FC? Was this the Kirby car or Dicks?

From what I understand that is the DH 1968 body on another chassis. The story is that DH sold the body and that the chassis under his 1968 car was used on his 1969 car. The body was then raced by these guys and hasn't been located as of yet.

Notice the door handle and what appears to be a visible door..also the molded in tail lights...The car is wearing a DH similar color scheme, complete with shield and paint and even sponsors, as well as the "Super Camaro" writing..Also make note of the spoiler and the "vanes" which are visible in the photos of the DH car..

Hope these photos work..

Here is a pic of DH's car..look at the similarites even down to the sponsors info..

<font color="blue">If you look closely, you can see the Harrell name in the paint. Sticker residue maybe. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif </font>

I don't know about the rest of your, but I want those pants and shirts for my pit crew! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif Unfortunately, I remember having pants about like that, but I was too young to do anything about it (4 years old)! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif
