Dis is My Ride!!!
Great stuff, Pat. I saw Richard Petty win a Daytona 500 back in '74 or '75, I don't remember which; Marty Robbins was also in the race, but wrecked.
I would not doubt the story about the buried wing car, especially when you mentioned that they would not allow Richard to sell any old factory parts. Not to mention that Chrysler destroyed all their old press patterns and dies. Oh, well.
"Circumcised canoe paddle"...love it.
