Andretti ran the Viceroy car until around 75.
Without seeing Foyt or Branson I'm not sure. If it's the pearl white Foyt car, 64 was the year.

Al won the Hoosier 100 in 70 &71 in Parnelli's Johnny Lightning car and he won 72 & 73 in the Viceroy car. In 1974 Al finished 2nd and Mario 3rd (Viceroy cars) to Jackie Howerton in Bignotti's STP Turbo-Offy. I believe 1974 was the last year for the Vel's Parnelli dirt car team. That Turbo-Offy would've made a beautiful model. I contacted GMP and they requested photo's etc. but, I guess they decided not to produce it. I'm not sure they even exist anymore. I have and extensive GMP and Carousel Indy/Dirt/Sprint/Midget collection. I love it!
