Hey Pete, I read that you're a Dick Brooks fan...Me too! I met Mr. Brooks at Nashville in '85 when he raced the #90 Junie Dunlevy Ford. Here is some pics of my T.O.P. '70 Superbird I painted & mounted on an AFX of Dicks #32 , along side my oldest race car, a T-jet, Quad-lam'd ,Champion panned, Pete Hamilton Plymouth. Old NASCAR is COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..........So are clear bodied HO cars!............Tom

I met Dick about half a dozen times over a 20 year span of being connected with the racing at Rocky Hill in Porterville. Nice guy, very soft spoken. I have in my model collection the MPC release of his red and gold #22 Golden Products Dodge Daytona, I have one built as well. I do plan on doing some Daytona's for MT/XT cars soon.

Porterville is an interesting place for racers, besides Dick we have Dave Bebee, who was a funny car champion in the 60's. Bebee was one of the drivers focued on in the movie "Funny Car Summer", and is still very active as a fuel dragster owner. He sells cars and runs a U-Haul dealership there.
