My 1965 Mustang Coupe vintage race car

"Racing Makes Herion Addiction look like a Vague Wish for Something Salty" --Peter Egan

Peter Egan was a Road and Track magazine writer. He wrote about F-1 racing and not vintage racing.

I traded an old British race car for this Mustang almost 25 years ago. It had a full cage with 1965/1966 period correct parts. It was sure fun and easy to drive. I only got wrecked three times (all not my fault). It won 5 Championships by not being the fastest car in qualifying with finishing the weekend.

The windshield banner says Gary Jones Motorsports. Gary left us with cancer. We all miss him.



I got some fire from the Feds before the race.

I have had this car a long time. Here is the NASA log book: It was just three races. but they say it is fake?



Why would I fake this?

It's Doc Jewell as seen by fast car in the above picture. I got it done despite heavy gun fire on my car?

I do not transport illegal moonshine; I work in finance, I may know a few friends that can make some really good stuff. No drugs are ever allowed.
