Hi Hayden, this is from a pile of Modified photos I was given that belonged to Gavin Evitt (Pallmall) I think it would be taken by either Ian Abrahams or Colin Irwin, sorry not sure who. I haven't scanned many of these as most don't have a photographers mark on the back and always like to credit who ever took the shot: hope its okay to post, how cool do these cars look!!

Hey gregobro, I'm sure that given the fact that Pallmall had the photos in his possession and you were given them, the photographers could ask their names be credited to the pic as they are used. No disrespect to the photographers but given the fact that Pallmall is no longer with us and he already had the pics, presumably from the original photographers (some also past), we as a community may never see some of the awesome pics of the past. Any thoughts on that? Sorry to hijack the post a bit. And yeah, those cars look very cool!!

My dad crewed for him from stockcars right through to his sprint car days and now I'm commentating I want to try find out where the cars are now etc. Cheers for the pic. Those cars certainly look cool!!

This photo was taken by the late Geff DeClean and he was one of the best in the job, It was a sad loss when Geff past away at a young age and it's great to see his photo's live on Racing is for the dirt not the roads

Hi Joe. Yes it will be an ex Bruce Harris car (the Segedins car above), Ricky sold it to Merv Julian, not sure if there were any other owners between you & Merv.
