I am looking for a phot of my dads car at Daytona 1969 first race. I have seen a few from then but I am looking for a specific shot with dads logo on front fender. Not sure if it was there for qualifier and not race or the opposite. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe a shot taken by someone when they were a kid or something.
Thanks,
Bill
Hope you find one Bill. I'm looking through my old photos now but 1969 was before I was getting pit passes and press credentials.
Bill, if you google your dad's name there is quite a few pic's of the 69 charger at Daytona in 69. There is also a picture of a car at the Concurs car show at Amelia Island taken by conceptcars that shows his name on left front panel.. see attached. Maybe concept cars would let you have a copy if you contacted them....
Found this one at Legends of NASCAR if it will help.

Also, you might contact Don Smyle at Smyle Media to see if he has one. I bought an ebook he put together of Don Hunter photos from 1969 Speedweeks.

I don't recall seeing a pic with that logo on it in the book. But Don may have additional ones of the car in his collection to share.
Are you looking for the "Rossi's Automotive Engineering" logo or something else?
