RACEWAY PARK PHOTO SCRAPBOOK #4

Dan Colyer, better known as James Bond, sits behind the wheel of his Chevelle #007 ready for action at Raceway Park in 1969.  Besides being a top stock car driver, Colyer was also a very talented sign painter/car detail artist with his "handy work" on most of the cars in action at Raceway.  With vinyl graphics now being the choice of most race car lettering, Dan still picks up a paint brush now and then.
