That is Lennie Pond ina Junior Johnson prepared Holly Farms machine.
Thanks Vernon. By the #54 I thought it my be Lennie. I was at the race but don’t remember Lennie driving Jr’s car. That’s been a few years back though.
Hey Gerald Jacks tow truck in the background. Brown Van. He had a old white chevy pickup until he startrd running for points and then he bought that. good picture. I may take this and show it to him also if you dont care.
Is this the 1976 LMS race? If so, Lennie finished 2nd. Joe Millikan finished 3rd in a Dodge – presumably the #04 Petty Enterprises Dodge. Any chance you have a photo of it?
Pretty cool about Jack’s hauler.
Also pretty cool having two different year Monte Carlo’s with different bodies in the same race. Those were the days.
