He got 2nd at LaMans 1962

Fireball nickname came from when he pitched baseball

After he got burnt at Charlotte , Tiny Lund filled the seat

I never had a Pontiac back then but his performance in them made me consider one with those neat aluminum wheels--after he went to Fords, I wanted a 63 fastbact 427 , but got a M 48 tank with a 90mm exhaust!!!!

He was certainly missed
