We Were Right. Duke is....

..creaping up on his 60th!! Found the post (below) from Duke in the archives from August 2005 that states he was 12 years old in 1959. (now, if I could just find the one that said his b-day was in June) Stand by for a pic of him next to his new 63. Wonder how much more of this non Corvette misc we can get away with before we're asked to refrain?

Track has to be Daytona, which they are running "backwards" (The photo is not reversed per the number 42 on the special behind the #88 Corvette.) IIRC Daytona opening in 1959, so I suspect this photo is from the first season of operation. I don't recognize the drivers. I was only twelve at the time. Duke

Check his trim tag

Im sure his birthdate is stamped right there (This message followup is now deemed "technical")

Re: Check his trim tag

Tiff, who once worked at a tree nursary, suggested we saw him in half and count his rings.

You have too much time on your hands.
