In July 1981, The Robesonian newspaper of Lumberton, NC published the 1st of a 10-part series. Veteran racing writer Gene Granger interviewed the King several times from 1976 through 1980. The paper distilled those interviews into a 10-part series. I think I'm behind a couple of days on the actual anniversary date of the article - but I see the first one started on a Tuesday. So I'm aligned there!
The resolution of the articles as I'll embed here will probably not be very good. But click them & a better version should be legible. I'll also try to remember to include a link to the original article as you may be able to zoom in better there as well.
To keep some comments flowing and not blow up the forum with 10 consecutive Petty posts, I'll stick to the 10 day pattern.
