You outdid yourself with this one Rick! That has to be one of the best Daytona beach race photos I've seen!

There is probably more pics in this thread than anyother I have put up.

In the 1964 Daytona grid shot it is interesting to see that Paul Goldsmith has a Plymouth and his team mate Bobby Isaac has a Dodge. I'sm sure Chrysler wanted it this way. Ray Nichels built and owned both of these cars. Nichels is a legend in the Midwest to this day even though he is no longer living.

Who can imagine watching a race from the beach. That must have been something to do back in the day.

That kind of feeling is so far removed to what we see now. Nascar has done little to capture this kind of magic. Not that they are going to beach run but to capture the feeling. So intead the feeling is history and some of it is right here.

If it's old it's cool and keepin it real is the rule

And yes, the feeling of history is here. And will stay!

songsmith1950: Sorry I missed this earlier! Yes, the 43 and at Daytona. That was something big my friend. I hope you are all doing well. Aug 10, 2014 16:28:54 GMT -5

Olive Oil: I have a picture of my late husband with Richard Petty. Richard was his favorite driver. Is place I can send this and have Richard sign it? It would mean everything to me. We were married 52 years. May 25, 2015 11:43:27 GMT -5

Carole: I have a picture of my husband sitting on the hood of the 43 car at the 1979 Daytona 500 winning circle. How he got on the hood, your guess is as good as mine!!! he's also on the back of the sleeve of the movie. Jun 9, 2015 13:19:25 GMT -5
