This is Michigan, right? If so, I believe that is Al Holbert in Hylton's #48 Oldsmobile in the Gabriel 400, the first Michigan race of the season. Richard Petty is still in the Dodge Magnum. His first race in a Chevy was the 2nd Michigan race.
Interestingly, the wire copy race results, Racing-Reference.info , presumably Greg Fielden's 40 Years book, and maybe even NASCAR's own "official" records have Holbert in a Chevrolet. But he is clearly in an Olds 442.
