Great pic! Buddy finished 2nd to The King that day with DW in 3rd in his Caprice named "Dolly". I blogged about Petty's win in that race in April 2012 here: http://bench-racing.blogspot.com/2012/04/april-22-this-day-in-petty-history-part_22.html

Those clunky Caprices looked dreadful on the road. But they made for some pretty good looking race cars - and they raced pretty well on the short tracks of 79-80.
