Robert, I was told that Bud Spears' car was a former Butch Leal car also. I was just waiting for someone to bring that up.

I saw the car also 25 or so years ago with the small tree growing up through the engine bay sitting infront of Bud's house. It was sad to see.

The story I was told about the car by the late WB Hutto was he believed the car though a '65, was built through connections at Chrysler for Butch in 1973. I don't know what is true about that story and what isn't.




Hey Dan Moore, you're #1.

RIP Mark Graham & WB Hutto
