OOP was a handle for John Fensom from the Kansas City area who did a lot of the painting work for Dick Harrell. He was truly a professional artist in that line of work without limits of what he could do? After Harrell's unfortunate accident, he was later employed at an AMC dealership. His gifted talent included those of steady hands.

Thanks SS427 for posting the picture as an example of some of his creative work!

amazing Peterson photos of Oop painting what I believe is ZL-1 #1 getting its 1970 paint job. Similar to the 1969 paint job with different stripe details

Looks like OOP painting the Camaro funny car but the file says Monte Wilson?

I've been trying to find Jerry Stanger/Stagner for a few years. He's credited in the SSDI article for applying the stripes on the '68 Harrell street Super Cars.

That is not OOP. He was much heavier than this fellow.

Doesn't look that way in post #54 which is why it was confusing me.
