Oh man, I'm getting old! Could sing that whole song for you. Lots of good old stock car pics there though. Like the one of Tim Flock in his Mercury. Check out his Wikipedia entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Flock for the story of Jocko Flocko, his ride-along monkey.
I helped paint Roy Halls house back in the day..not even realizing who he was...After the job was done..he gave me a ride up to n.atlanta in a elcamino...
