Looks like it could be a Steve Stapp chassis with a Stanton type hood. Could that be "The One Armed Bandit"?

I believe #7v is Jerry Vandenhul. Had a heck of a crash into the turn three wall out at Manzanita at the end of the '97 season. I believe at one time he had sponsorship from Kicker Sound Systems.

After a quick Google search, looks like the correct lettering of the name is Jerry VanDenHul and he is from Arkansas City, Kansas.

Here's a picture of his Manzy accident...

The #96 is Scott "Breezy" Whitworth from Worthington, MO

The 4c is Dean Cook's car from Farmington, Mo. He had a Stapp car and a Maxwell car.

I believe the driver in the picture is Tom Corbin.

Schrader had already left the ride in 82.
