I don't think so. Must be a earlier photo. Fireball was burnt in May of 1964 and was already gone by September of 1964. I will do a little research and try to date this photo.

From what I can tell this looks like April 21, 1963. That race Rex White started on the pole and the race was won by Richard Petty. 1963 was the first year Fireball drove for HM.

Rex, Jr Johnson, and Fireball are all driving 1963 year model cars and from what I can tell there are several other 1963 year model cars behind them. So my guess would be 1963. Odd seeing Rex in a car with black sides on it.
