Not sure of anyone else but I know there are poster on here who could name everybody.

That calender was done by Tom Webb, Chris White & myself. Larry Hill put up the money to get them produced, they're not quite poster size and we each put 4 shots on it. I think they sold for $5. Here's a break down on pictures from what I can remeber: Starting clockwise,
Howie 'The Jet' Sewell....NCRA at SFS, that's Tom hanging out the side of the Corvett..... tower shot from the quartermile, Leep & Bobby Walker are the back two cars......Jerry Stone in the Ofiixco car....Ray Crawford, Emmett Hahn & Stoney......Ray Crawford......Walker is the middle car.......I believe the two factorys are the Dentons......Modified drivers #2Joe Roberts & #23 Denny Height.....Darrell Jennings.........#13 Terry Courtney & #86 Troy Matchen and #10 Mike Peters & #99 Harold Leep
And yes, I still have one hanging in my garage.

Brian26 that #2 looks like the old Suchy 76? It still has the little deflector/wing on the front.
