Don, for your brother Joe to hold the A/stick record for three years is quite an accomplishment and the car looks great.
I know there are some racers along the East Coast that take that class very seriously!

I like the paint on this '69. Period correct appearing without going overboard.
There certainly are a lot of old muscle cars at that track...

Rob, After i posted the question to you i Google searched Jeff Velde. Mr. Velde passed in 2012,he was inducted in to the Drag Racing Hall of Fame in 2008. He grew up in Ill. but moved to Florida when he and his father bought a Ford dealership there.
I watched him race many times at Beach Bend in Div.3 points meets and the Sportsnationals.He was always a top contender in each event.
