Looking for info on Les Snow 14 Dodge Super Bee or Glen Bradley super bee

General

Thanks for the info to look at

We know that the chassis is 68 style forward not pre 68 by verification to a known Nichels chassis of the same style time period and requirement changes at that time.

so I am not sure if it could have been skinned as a 68 road runner before the 70 super bee.

I do wonder if it could have just started as the super bee and just have the one rebody.......there are a couple of things that make us believe that the chassis may have been built in 69 and I have to wonder if it was later 69 that it was directly the super bee and not a rebody at that time.

So since we have only had the car for a short time I am trying to find us much history that could go with it as possible

Thanks for the help, that is another clue for me, I had understood so far that Les was owner and driver.

I spoke to Dennis Newlun this week he is the last owner/driver of it and he said the Glen Bradley had it as the 52 and that is who he bought the car from.

I am trying to gather as much info as possible and if anyone has pictures of it I would love to see them.

So far I just have the one picture of it sitting on a track with a firestone truck in the background.

just recently acquired the old race car #19 D. R. Newlun USAC bodied as a 72 Charger.

I talked to Mr. Newlun and he said that he got it from Glen Bradley who had gotten it from Les Snow

Newlun changed it from the Super Bee to the Charger, it is a Nichels Chassis.

I am looking for any info, pictures contact info of people that knew the cars or drivers that would have info to help establish the complete history of the car.
