I don't know how to post the picture directly....

Indy 1966.......
I/SA r/up.......Not bad for two teenagers


Take note of the rear windows.......
It was a NJ Bell Telephone service truck.....
It had to have rear windows to be allowed to drive on the NJ Parkway.....
Even today NO commercial vehicles are allowed to drive on some roads in this area.
Some Parkways in New York....

Believe it was the combo in the Neja Bros. wagon....
I'm not sure if the 265 was offered in 57 Pontiacs. GM must have used the Chevy facts in their info because the Pontiacs had a 261 6 cyl engine and not the 235 .

Glad you posted it anyway! That car looks like the ol' Val Hedworth wagon he ran in
the closing years of the "old" Stock Elim...and later as a SS/V class car. Anybody here
know if L & W bought the car from Val...or did they make a "clone"?

Hey, jim roundtree, i use to use the same trick when i was running the "go army car" '55 chev. Back in the seventy's. Out of ft. Hood. We used two windshield washer set up over the rear tires that the driver could activate with a button !!!! No water, mixture of vht and alcohol.....worked really good if your alone at the races or if track prep sucked........after the race you better do maintenance of cleaning the system or else.....
