Does anybody remember back in the early 80's a t5 bronze 69 Bee owned by a Kenny and had Beeware on the back 1/4s? Thats my dad's original car and I'm still trying to find it. I will have to get some pics uploaded. But Sheldon was Kennys buddy and he tied the unibody together and did a cage for Kenny, Kenny had Burleigh Super Shell on the front fenders of the 69 Bee as well. This is when my dad owned it  This is when Kenny owned it

Far side burnout box. I took this shot at DaGrove in the 70's.
Trivia question: Name the owners/drivers of this famous Vette in order. (turned into a bracket car here of all things).
It looks like the Wayne County Speed Shop Vette driven by Dave Hutchens or Albert Clark.

The Coonce & Clark looked similar. This is the Reher-Morrison/Lee Sheppard later Tony Christian driven world beater modified eliminator car. This photo it was a 5 speed bracket car.

The car is now on Ebay with a user from South Carolina item number 111631395827
If I recall there was a write up in MCG not long ago that Charlie Blankenship found and bought this car. Maybe that is him flipping it now
