Craigster, That 'Hey-Man' CA plate was on a Black Carrera on a lot here in Denver this summer. Near my house.
With the hand print. Without the green stuff on the bottom. Where'd you get it? |

Go buy yourself Smokey's autobiography for Christmas. A bit quirky and long, but one hell of a fun read.

In 1964, Yunick showed up at the track with one of the most radical cars ever to enter the 500-mile race. Called the Hurst Floor Shift Special, it featured a catamaran-like layout with the driver placed in a pod adjacent to a second pod containing the engine, front and rear suspension, fuel tank, and radiator. Unfortunately, his driver Bobby Johns—the guy who almost won the Daytona 500 with Smokey’s Pontiac in 1960—had trouble adjusting to the car’s handling characteristics and eventually backed it into the wall during the last day of qualifying.
