Maybe he was the guy that unloaded those Fotomat booths from the truck and used that car to push them into place.

A buddy of mine dropped off these three photos the other day. This was my first racecar. You can see the transition from Cragars and no lettering, to lettering (Quicksilver) to Centerlines with lettering. Sorry I tried to rotate the pictures and failed.

Those bumperettes OK if you push something often. If hit something below hood level you'll wreck the hood. If tops of them were below level it could save the hood.
