<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: AdmiralityBlue</div><div class="ubbcode-body">My Pleasure to FINALLY post these pictures. Just wish i'd arranged them in better Order. These are all Original photographs, the entire little stack being seen here on SYC for the 1st time!

Verne. where &amp; when were these early stocker photos taken?


</div></div>

All the photos with the &quot;D-A&quot; tower are the '62 Nationals at Indy. So many famous cars all together. Those photos are GOLD!

Great pictures, thanks for sharing! Verne Frantz alerted me to them ... they are Indy NHRA nationals 1962. Hayden Proffitt, Dyno Don Nicholson in his whete Bel Air. Higher res scans may help ID the other cars.

Hubert Platt in the yellow Nally-Nicholson car, could be Arlen Vanke in the Pontiac, the Zintmaster Impala on the far side, unsure about the Plymouth and the Bel Air next to it ... the #739 Impala may be Bill Flynn who ran the Yankee Peddler Mopars later on.

Al Eckstrand in the Dodge, possibly the Impala might be Ronnie Sox but I can't be sure of that unless I see a higher resolution (300dpi) scan. The Biscayne launching on the right looks like, but not 100% sure, Butch Leal.

I see from a previous photo that the dark Impala is The Bader Chevrolet car, not Ronnie Sox. Bader Chevrolet ran a Z-11 Chevy in '63 as I recall ... and a Z-11 powered Chevelle after that.
