Default Window Decals

Not intending to send this thread too far off 'track', but I still have Dad's track jacket from his GTO days. I'm sure many of the decals on the windows of the '68 would match the patches on this jacket. Dad says that this car, or his previous '64, raced down all these tracks.

I don't have any numbers of what this Royal Bobcat would run, but Dad said that it picked up some time after he drilled holes in the rims and screwed the rear tires to the wheels!

That is about the coolest 68 and story I've ever heard of.

Wow what a find if this car was still in existence...

Thanks for sharing the photos - Epic!
