1967 Daytona Continental Pictures

[Daniel]

When I was in high school I was a pit runner at the 67 Continental and just discovered I still have some slides of the race I thought you might enjoy.

This is the car (1049) at the racingicons site.

Hi Daniel,

Those are some awsome pictures to have in the memory bank!

Is there any chance of getting the one of the P4 in the pits scanned at a higher resolution (1900 x 1220). That would make a truely excellent wallpaper for the PC.

Daniel,

I've signed up for the site but I can't locate your pictures. Where on the site are they?

Thanks.

Bob

Good stuff!

 

[Earl Nagle]

Great pics, love that shot of Bruce!:thumbsup:

 

[Jim Craik]

These are some truly historic shots, you need to get together with the photo archive people. So they will not be lost to history.

That looks like a young Tyler Alexander behind Mr Mclaren.

 

[Allen English]

Awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing them with us.:thumbsup:

Victory Lane

Chaparral

Ferarri driver making a "real" pit stop.

No race complete without this guy (or gal?)

Wouldn't you love to take your pick of any one of the cars in those photos? Thanks for sharing. BTW....I'd have a tough job of picking between the P4, GT40 or Chaparral...probably the P4 though.

Daniel, thanks for posting these great photos. I like seeing photos that have not been "out in public" before.
