Kim, you should give Doug a holler in St. Louis, he knows the guys that were involved in the Kwik Way shop.

Living in St. Louis, I don't remember a Barford Chevrolet. Not saying that there wasn't, just never heard of them. I have a another photo of Rains' 67 Camaro with Milner Chevrolet sponsership on the rear quarters. Now Milner was a large well known dealership here in St. Louis but they are long since gone. My own 68 Camaro was even sold from there. Anyway, I tried to post the photo but it says the picture is too large. Any advice.

Somebody needs to give me an E-mail without spaces in it so I can get this photo to someone that can post it. The e-mails in the profile section do not work.

Just a photo I happened to find surfin' the web. Really don't remember where I found it. The Milner Chevrolet and stinger hood are what got my attention and that is why I saved it. Hope it helps.
