Sorry, but I have to disagree.

We raced Carl at Quaker City quite a lot during the 65-67 time period, and had the paint the car wears now, the gray/with dark sides. That is the original paint. He won sixteen combo races in a row at QCR in 67, beating my cousin's "Lucifer" 64 Hemi Dodge in four finals. Carl "Holeshot" Schodde was unbeatable during that period. I have 8mm films taken at QCR during that time, and it is the orignal paint.

The Greg paint job came a bit later, around 1970. I also have 8mm films of the car winning class at the NHRA Summernationals in Englishtown, with the Greg paint job. Personally, I prefer the original paint. I must just be getting old and conservative.
