Need a little help from stock car racing friends


Stock Car Racing History

My family name is "Lutz"

https://abload.de/img/lee-petty-bill-lutz-rsqqpi.jpg

on picture were: Bill Lutz in his 1957 Olds with Ralph Earnhardt and Lee Petty (beside)

Inside my family genealogy tree i have a lot of Lutz those emigrated to US ... p.e. in Geneva, NB, Pekin, IL, San Francisco CA, Atlanta GE, Stone Mountain GE, Boise ID and other places ....

Of course Bill Lutz was from Kentucky - may be another Lutz line, but he was the only driver in NASCAR with my family name ...

In that way .... one of my next plastic model building projects in scale 1/25 will be to built these racing scene:

https://abload.de/img/1960daytona50044lutz6lfskt.jpg

with four cars in 1960 Daytona race:

60 Ford Starliner #44 Bill Lutz
59 Chevrolet Impala #67 David Pearson
60 Pontiac Catalina #63 Whitey Gerken
59 Chevrolet Impala #76 Larry Frank

Cars can be made from the AMT Starliner, Revell Impala and Trumpeter Bonneville (AMT Promo kit isnt avialable in Europe) or Moebius Ventura kits and decals by aftermarket manufacturing ...

My primary question goes to the body colors of the cars?

I found a picture of the Pearson Impala (same year other sponsor) = this car was red

Anybody knews the colors of the other three cars?

thanx 4your efforts
