Comment

  This is another shot of Buddy's (Marion's) Corvette. If you look closely at the side of the car, you will see 'HELPER Little Buddy'. This refers to Buddy's son, Ansley, who gets the credit for sharing these photos. Also, on the side of the car is 'Houston Bros. Speed Shop' and 'Houston Bros. Drag Strip - Palmetto, GA'. The drag strip was about halfway between Fairburn and Palmetto and is usually referred to as being in Fairburn. I spent a lot of Friday and Saturday nights behind that chain link fence watching the races. -- David Dilbeck
