1960 Pontiac Catalina Daytona 500 Winner - Inside Marvin Panch's 1960 Racecar
|
Wait a minute. There's no soda pop, beer, builder's supply company or phone company logos on this Daytona 500 winner. What gives? Before the 1970s ushered big corporate sponsors into NASCAR, the racing teams depended upon the help of aftermarket parts manufacturers to supply some of the parts needed to prepare a stock car for the Daytona 500. Monroe, Grey-Rock, Champion, Perfect Circle, and Pure Oil were all sponsors of the day. Also note that the tail, turn signal, and reverse lights were removed and replaced with body-color painted sheetmetal. View Related Article
