Th A.J. Foyt photo is interesting because he DID run a Chrysler very briefly for Norm Nelson in USAC - Norm was from here in town and his son showed me some pics of both cars on the trailer - 65 Plymouth I beleive - this might have been the Dealer that sponsored the car???

Foyt raced a Dodge for Ray Nichols in Nascar in 1964. He won the July race at Daytona. Ford could not provide him one of their Indy engines for the 500 and temperamental as Foyt was he gave the Ford people the finger when pulling into victory lane at Indy and so no Fords for AJ for a while. They kissed and made up and he won Daytona again in 1965 in a Ford.
