It would for sure be Pete Goodman's #39 car. I'm guessing from the limited view that it was Hank's BBQ on Cowardin Avenue across from the old Martin Chevrolet. Pete ran a Pontiac powered orange GTO in the late model division later also. Pete piloted his own cars early on, and had a variety of drivers in later years. I was at Southside one night when Ray Hendrick "borrowed" Pete's Sportsman car. He started at the back of the field and thrashed his way to a third place finish in the feature with a car that was plowing like a dump truck.

Pete Goodman owned Pontiac powered race cars for a long time. He worked at a Pontiac dealership in Richmond and he was Ted Hairfield's father in law. Probably Southside Speedway.
