55 Danny Frank. Looks very uncomfortable to drive.

64 Ebby Ridge 

10 could be either Mike Grbac, Rick Lewis, or a couple others who I can’t think of right now. Nadar Hoffer owner.

The 10 is Nandor Hoffer sr. I believe Paul Rochelle drove this. It was the first Modified car i Lettered @ age 13 this car was kept at a house in Franlin twp. Somerset right down the street from Alfry service center on Hamilton st. I went to school with Eugene Hoffer and he asked do i want to letter it.. It ended up being the first of many race cars to this day..

Great stuff Rick - Glad I got that one posted and that it brough back a memory... That's what this is all about.

By the way, on the back of that image (the #10) it does say "Paul Rochelle - Flemington - July 1977.)

I was thinking it was Paul Roschell , Spelling? driving the 10 in this picture. Fritz Epright drove this car a couple times also, I remember helping when Fritz drove it.

I was thinking the same thing about the 55, Rick. I guess driver comfort wasn't a priority

I was given a picture of that yellow 64 by a person who was a home inspector, when people are buying a home.I gave it to Sven Heden,Hiedys father.He told me the back story with that car there was about 5 people involved with the car.Karl Fryer,Ken Johnson,Ebby Ridge,this home inspector, and a person with last name of Kline from upper black eddy Pa.any how they kind of drew straws and Ebby got the honors of running the car.

His name was Butch Kline. Ken Johnson became the driver and "Kliney" the owner. Additional partners came along as time went by.

Yep, Butch Klein of Erwinna, Pa. Previous driver was Leon Harrison, then Ebby. Ken Johnson supposedly drove the coupe when Ebby was in the Gremlin but I don’t remember it. Butch was the sole owner until Eric “Bowser” Baumann came on board around 1980 or so.

I believe Donny Frank's car was a former Newt Hartman #24.
