if I remember he totaled one of these bad
There was a story told that Yarborough’s Pontiac powered car used the engine out of the 1963 Pontiac LeMans Super Duty that Paul Goldsmith drove to victory in that year’s Daytona American Challenge Race. Anyone have anything further on that? – Mike
Nice models, I’ve always wanted to build em’, just don’t have the time and patience!
