Does anyone have a picture of Mike Patterson's #5 rookie car?
I was asked for a Ricky Weeks Starette Trucking Car photo....here is a couple.

Can anyone identify the driver? Any Freddy connection? It's definitely at Hagerstown.
Thanks in advance.
I believe that is Dana Eiland. No idea on a Freddie Smith connection other than they both were driving Custom Chassis cars at that time. Frank McClendon's Custom Chassis shop was in Columbus Ga and Dana is from that area and runs at EAMS, which is just across the river in Phenix City Ala.
Does anyone have pics of Jody Ridley's 1955 Ford? It was his same blue and white. He ran it at Middle Ga. Raceway just before he bought a 63 1/2 Ford from Joe Lee Johnson. He was tough as nails in both of them. Thanks in advance.
I have a photo of that car but it might take a while to find it.
Buck Simmons, Freddy Smith & Jack Pennington
