Default Re: Harrell cars

I believe that is a 67, but don't remember Dick having that paint job. It looks a little like one of Kelly Chadwicks paint jobs. I also believe that is Dick Harrell standing in the background in the white shirt.Dick's 67 funny car was red with a black roof until someone borrowed it and painted it a yellowish orange with black top. Bruce Neff later bought that car, painted it orange I believe and put STROKER on the car. Somewhere I read that Dick borrowed Kelly Chadwicks car, and it seems like it had STEAKLEY CHEVROLET on the door. That photo has Dick Harrell Chevrolet on it, and Mr. Harrell was never a Dealer. Could it just be a decal covering up the STEAKLEY? Dick's 67 funny car he drove in the regular drivers side seat. The 68 on I believe he drove from the center back in the flip top cars. These are just my thoughts and how I remember them, not saying it is facts.
