Default Need Pics of Car Raced at 68 US Nationals - Help!

Fellas -

I know it's a bit of a long shot, but looking for pics of a 68 Ram Air II Firebird raced at the US Nationals in 1968. It was 4 sp car, likely red at the time, but could have been black. Raced by the Frame Brothers, sponsored by Wells Pontiac in Richmond, Indiana.

Might have also been raced at Columbus OH in 1968.

Please let me know if you have pics or info.

Thanks

Scott

Please ignore the previous post. I have read your posts on the PY forum and we both know who owns the car.

Found a little more info on the car, but no pics.

This is from 1968 Indy -

#1085
Entry: Frame Bros Pontiac
Driver: Dick Frame, Richmond IN
Car: 68 Pontiac

Someone recommended looking for pictures on Yahoo Stock SS Forum or Facebook and try Mid Size Flyers but for the life of me I can't find either one.

Try these photos from Edgewater Drag Strip, Cleves Ohio. What you got to lose?

Thanks for the links. I'll check them.

Car was also raced at 5 Mile, Tri State, and Muncie if anyone has old pics from the late 60's/early 70's.

Thanks

Scott
