This is great mj, if you watch it again when you get to the class 8 trucks the Dodge with the yellow stripe over the hood and down the doors I think is Walker Evans and there's a black ford with 2 names on the door thats Ivan Stewart and Charlotte Corral also look for a Jeep CJ one of them is Don Adams I think he was sponsord by Don A Vee Jeep.

mj, the 55 was driven by Larry Schwacofer (not sure on the spelling) he had a Nomad as his prerunner and eventually upgraded to a late model 57 Chevy I have pics somewhere of them at an early 80's barstow race looking for them now I also have some from a late 80's baja 500 and several years of Riverside, the SCORE Championships. I'll post'em when I can find 'em.

Would highly doubt that if that for the fact he wouldn't do it I doubt Mr Hendrick would let him .
