[Edited by Moparts - Keep it clean], that shot was taken at old Keystone Raceway Park, (now Pittsburgh Raceway Park) back around 1972-1973. Wes Leopold's son races a SS GT Daytona, and Lydon is back in the MoPars again with a maxie 64 Plymouth A/SA. He raced some SS GT Camaros for a while. The Hemi Cuda is an original and Jimmy Lydon still has it parked on display in his game room (no kidding), just the way you see it there.
Here is another "heavy" of the day; Carl Schodde's "Steel City Wedge". The car was almost unbeatable in the western Pa.-Ohio area, and was very successful in Division One points and the eastern NHRA National events. This shot was taken around 1974. It had been wrecked, repaired, and got one of those fancy paint jobs by Greg of Akron, Ohio.

Here is the same car, today....fully restored and back to its original paint scheme. Personally, I liked it like this much better than the Greg fancy paint.
