Budman Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Indeed he was alttuede. The dark car in the photo is being driven by Buzz Barton. He was quite famous for gnawin' on a stogie while he drove. The driver of the 32 car is Dick Word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickHolt Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 What a great photo! Any idea who took it. Looks like both drivers had their left hand on the brakes. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budman Posted April 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 I was looking at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame site and came across the name of Buzz Barton, as a 2001 Inductee. Check it out at ............. sprintcarhof.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
