I need help with identifying the drivers in these photos. They were supposedly taken in 1966 at Paragon. I was told the #53 could be Bob Kinser but I'm not sure. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Russ

The first pic looks similar to a roadster that Ember Link used to drive but, I thought it was a #49 and it was Ford Powered. The exhaust on the pictured car looks like the two center cylinders are "siamese" like a chevy. Just a guess.

These are before my time, and they're great. The roadster a great looking car. It also says chevy powered on the hood. That's all I have.

The #46 was Gene Hensen, called "The Flying Eye Ball"
I watched him many Sunday nights at "Little Springfield"

Yes, the #46 is Gene Henson who was a terror. The #53 is "the rockin chair special" of the Fox's. Could be Bobby Kinser.
O'Connor fan, what was Bobby Carrigan's #?
