I found a neat piece of NASCAR history - 1964 Catalina
 
It’s been a few minutes since the last time I posted on this forum, but I decided to dig it back up so I could share my recent marketplace find.. This is a 1964 Catalina that originally belonged to one of the founders of NASCAR, Mr. Enoch Staley. Check out this video. I’m hoping that someone will see this video and remember this car and help fill in the gap for me.

Yeah. I’m actually looking for some used paint for a 64 Catalina as we speak. Let me know if you run across any.

Believe it or not, I have seen worse. Unless the engine is installed in a vehicle and is running, I almost always check someone else’s work whenever I receive something like this. And in almost every single case I find stupidity.
