I don't remember Buzzie with  a '36 Chevy body only 37's.  Did he build it for him or was the body changed?

Check out the lettering on the #37.  No doubt about who the sponsor was on that car.

In the bottom photo, I think that might be an early attempt at a flame job on the #07.

Makes me remember the days of going to the races and actually noticing the look, the stance and the lettering of every car, and choosing who I would root for... who I thought would do well... maybe even who I thought wouldn't do well... all before the drop of the green flag, all because of the uniqueness of a car's look.

My general rule was I liked a car with the back end up, the lettering on the mild side, and the driver had to look like he was driving from the back seat!
