 :)  LT 75  --  Not sure on the # 6.  If you have never gone to www.misschicken.com, then please do, and check out not only asphalt cars, but also recent updates.

Most of Jerry Simpson's cars were LMs, number 11.  He painted the numbers himself, with just 2 straight lines.  For a good while there, they had the hobby cars' numbers in circles.  I do not remember that particular 6 car, but Tobby's recent updates  do show that car.  The hobby cars all ran sixes.

Joey Myers drove a number of 6 hobby cars, but I do not think that was one of his.  Hope this helps.

I used to admire Larry Phillips from afar in the pages of SCR and National Speed Sport News.  Great looking build with lots of character.

Many that's one fine lookin' repop there, DB.
I know Larry was pretty much a legend in the middle part of the country.
I really like what you did on this one.
I recently acquired 2 - '68-'69 Chevelle hardtops.
Getting some ideas here........

Great work !!

As I said in my post above, this is a fantastic replica build. I really enjoyed seeing all the pictures of the actual car and some of the history on this build. This is what replica building is all about.

Thanks everyone for the pictures and history.
