I spoke with you last year about my father, Paul McWilliams. Attached is a
photo of him beside his 55 Chevrolet, taken at Yellow River Dragway in 1968.
The car was built by he and Ken Payne and usually driven by Steve Hood.
Hood and Payne's Corvette is in the background of this picture. This car set
2 national records and went to the World Finals in Tulsa, OK in 1968. He
also raced a 1940 Ford in the 1950's, which is in my garage. We are trying
to track down some pictures of this car, also.

I've had further discussions about this photo and determined it was taken in March, 1969, rather than 1968.
