    Fellas -

    I know it's a bit of a long shot, but looking for pics of a 68 Ram Air II Firebird raced at the US Nationals in 1968. It was 4 sp car, likely red at the time, but could have been black. Raced by the Frame Brothers, sponsored by Wells Pontiac in Richmond, Indiana.

    Might have also been raced at Columbus OH in 1968.

    Please let me know if you have pics or info.

    Thanks

    Scott

    Found a little more info on the car, but no pics.
    This is from 1968 Indy -
    #1085
    Entry: Frame Bros Pontiac
    Driver: Dick Frame, Richmond IN
    Car: 68 Pontiac

    Someone recommended looking for pictures on Yahoo Stock SS Forum or Facebook and try Mid Size Flyers but for the life of me I can't find either one.

    Had one hit on classracer.com, but still no pics. Looks like the car was also raced at Muncie, 5 Mile, and Tri-State.

    Thanks

    Grumpy Jenkins ran two cars at Indy that year. Perhaps you will find a photo of a Jenkins car with the Firebird in the background?

    just an idea
