In the background of the 68 Camaro SS car it looks like the red Camaro may have been an old Yenko sponsored ride...MaybeBKH

Last time we looked at these same pics and discussing that '67 in the background, Mark Johnson said...&quot;That's the Weber Chevrolet '67 Camaro that I'm pretty sure was one of the Barford Yenkos driven by Gene Rains. I'm sure I'll be corrected by someone if I'm wrong about this. By the way, Weber is still in business to this day...&quot;

Launch shot is one I had saved on my confuser and posted here before?
Steakley emblem pic posted here previously too, courtesy of Anders.

Sorry for the constant hijacking but here's the Steakley dealer info also a few more of their drag car pics.
Pics are of Kelly Chadwick and Bobby Steakley's cars also the last pic later and Grover Rogers w/ their old chassis and a '71 body.
Not sure if the floppers are the same Hardy chassis w/ different bodies as w/ Chadwick &amp; Bobby S. both having 69's, you'd think there was at least two?
I believe the current pics Rick posted above is a different old dealership and the Steakley operation next door across the side street?
Googling the address, w/ Street View you can see the Steakley name on an old billboard across the side street also a Chevy Bowtie on the building behind...it changes to later Google pics w/ different billboard if you go too far along the street.
