Name on door very hard to dicipher..first name starts with B, last name starts with M …I think.Speed Parts Center on scoop.
Demonstrates the importance of GOOD lettering! BTW I hope you didn’t letter this Dino 😀
was ’74 Brian says…IF I lettered it,which I didn’t ,I’d know who it was.
that could be one of Ron Malanise’s cars . i think R&R was the name of his bus. Billy
Billy, Ronnies Vega had B and R Construction on it……….Yes?
Sachs will Know ?
going to Valley Chassis tomorrow
will show Bobby the picture he might remember
if it is hooked up with speed parts center,

I’ll throw a few ‘Fastballs’ at this one.
More of ‘back door info’
‘Manhattan Speed Shop’
Varick Street or Canal Street
Manhattan, NYC
Also, sponsored some missing 68′ S/S Hemi Dart in 68’/69′
I believe Joe Bello was the owner of the Speed Shop.
May have had something to do with Worth Auto Parts?
Also, another place ‘Manhattan Speed & Power Equipment’
232 West Broadway
NYC
Just where were these guys??
PC
Maybe check with Bob Ingles, that could be one of his old cars, and by the sponsors, it’s from his neck of the woods. Just a thought…………………………………..Mikey 😆
Paul , Manhattan Speed , Worth Auto Parts . Manhattan Power and Bronx Speed were owned by Joe Doto and his dad and uncle. Joe is married to my cousin. He still sells speed equipt. 28-32 Ford parts and loads of NOS speed parts. Joe thinks that the Vega belonged to Ron Malanise . Skeet Russell has Joe’s new sticker on his car.

Chas…Think thats Correct…Thats what I thought it said-REAL Blurry as driver name on door.Photo not in good quality -tried to zoom in & edit ..too far gone Hey its old ,like us .Maybe Sachs can get a hold of Ron and confirm…they contact each other(Came to Reunion together) I’ll ask him.
NOT one of Bob’s cars! I’ve been with Bob since we were teenagers and I know every car he had ……Bob’s only Vega was an SRD Vega purchased from Bruce Larsen…..My Vega was an SRD Vega purchased from Brad Hietala….The pictured Vega is a homebuilt and as I mentioned back in March I think it was owned by Ronnie who is now in Florida…I speak to him sometimes and I will call and confirm what I think……………..You guys are like my kids………You just don’t listen 😆 😆 😆 Casey also thinks that was Ronnies Car……………
