Names & paint jobs on drag cars have always been interesting, to me.

Here's a 007 Pontiac. Wonder how many cars used that name, back when the James Bond movies 1st got popular ?

I've mentioned the Acre Maker cars, which the Moore family raced. I think the Dad, Roland Moore, was driving the big car when the Indy pic was taken.

Then we have a big Pontiac with a red/white, candy-stripe top.

And, of course, a tiger stripe. Assume it was orange.

I assume that back in the late '60's & '70's there were quite a few psychedelic paint jobs.
