June 5, 2005 LI, NY NCRS Race Car Event The 1966 Penske Sunoco Blue race car #9 with the #38 Busch North Series Monte Carlo on the DeMonte Motorsports race car hauler. Kevin Mackay stated that this was the first car fielded by Penske as a team owner, instead of merely being a race car driver.
Kevin told a story how the doors were always kept open when this car would go through pre-race tech inspection. That made the slight (but illegal) flares less prominent.
Both of these 1966 coupes raced at the 1966 Daytona Continental. More pics. Note: I adjusted the colors for contrast, and colors shifted
