Couple of questions.
#1 - What are the words on the door directly to the right of the 1 and also below the Bowtie on left side quarter panel? When ya zoom in, it gets JUST TOO blurry to read. #2 - Where is this ad located? Online archive? In a magazine... Life, Car Craft, Hot Rod, or maybe a Long Beach newspaper? #3 - Lastly, do we know the color of this car? Appreciate any help on this... Danny Last edited by dannystarr; 06-30-2023 at 02:00 PM. |

Thanx, but doesn't look like that is what is printed on the door. TOO many letters? The door looks like a person's name... First initial of first name then a period, then their last name?
Like B. Argonopoly or ?? Danny |

#1 I have an original print at home I can look at later #2 this was used in the 1968 South Gate high year book. That’s the original one I have at home. Photo was taken likely late November early December of 1967 given the advertising for tickets for an event in the window. #3 it is believed the car is Omaha orange. When you use a color changing app for vintage photos the car becomes orange My dad and I own a 1968 Dana z28 that was in Dana’s hands at the time this photo was taken. It is a factory special order paint car in Omaha orange with full factory paper work. It is optioned just like the car in the photo. No spoiler, upper door trim, non rs, ect…the car also has factory paint under the respray… when sanding the respray, traces of black paint were found between the two paint jobs. Nothing is exact and concrete, but we believe our car could possibly be the one in the photo. |

In the original photo, you can see z/28 stripes on the trunk lid. So I don’t believe the car in the photo is dale Armstrongs car. Though his car was Omaha orange.
