Old Nascar Rookie division car

This is a car a late friend (Mike Reeves) ran at the New Asheville Speedway in 1967 and yes it was Nascar sanctioned.

Cool!  Sure liked seeing these old cars on the race track back in the days. ?

Thank you, I do too. I've got a bunch of them, mostly the old limited sportsman 37 to 40 cars that raced around here in the early 60's. i built race engines for Leo Jackson 1985 thru  96 and Andy Petree 97 thru2002 to me that racing did not compare to the old racing.

Very cool build of an old racehorse.  Used to see a bunch like that in the Hobby Stock division at Hickory Speedway back in the late 60's. Thanks for the flashback in time.

I enjoyed Hickory too back in the day. Roy Trantham ran real good there as well as alot of others like Setzer and Bob Pressley.    Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures got some more  I'll post later.

Welcome to the forum!  Really like this vintage rookie-division build; would really like to see some more pics of the front, engine and bottom-side of this excellent looking build!

Thanks for the kind words, I'll get some pictures on here in a few days. I'm not computer literate so I have to get my son to help me.

Here's some more pictures.

Glad to see your work posted, Jim. The 49 Ford and Garage diorama looks great, and you know its authentic, because you lived that life and witnessed it all.
