Here are Pete’s liner notes on each driver...

40 Johnny Mackinson hailed from Delta, PA and was known as “The Delta Dart.” He was mostly a dirt racer and competed in 11 races in 1958. This car represents the Camp Hill Special Ford which he raced at Trenton, Concord and New Oxford. He represents the typical local driver with poor reliability compared to the NASCAR regulars. 511 Squirt Johns was from Brockway, PA and ran 2 races in 1958. He qualified 5th and 9th and DNFed both times. Great picture on the internet of spinning him out in practice for a race with Jack Smith trying to get around the outside of the spinning Squirt. 90 Emanuel Zervakis was from Richmond, VA and was known as “The Golden Greek” which was painted above the driver’s window in big bold letters. He ran 6 races in 1958 for then novice car owner Junie Donlavey who for over 50 years fielded cars for , , , and to name a few. 62 Bobby Lee was from Sumter, SC and ran 5 races in 1958. This is the Horne Motors Ford with the number he ran at the last beach race at Daytona where he finished 32nd. 16 Charlie Cregar from Bloomsbury, NJ ran in 4 races in 1958 and 1959 at the big paved tracks of the era - Trenton, Daytona and Darlington. This is a Pontiac which was owned by Happy Stiegel who fielded cars for Elmo Langley and (Dale Sr.’s dad). 53 Kenny Johnson hails from Jamestown, NY. Great Youtube video of the car being towed down to the first Daytona super speedway race in 1959 and great video from the garage area as well including . He finished 43rd at Daytona. One funny thing about the research is that the colors white, red and black were the predominant colors of most cars. 56 Bill Morton was from Church Hill, TN and finished 13th in the last beach race at Daytona in this Ford. Great views of this car racing the beach race at Daytona in color on Youtube!! 916 Dean Layfield was from Wellsville, NY and ran 7 races in 1958 with his best finish of 12th occurring at the Daytona beach race. He only had one race where he did not finish in the top 20. The 6 on this car was actually smaller the the 9 and 1 so this was done intentionally. This card reflects his ability to finish the race. 61 Dick Foley hailed from Montreal, QC and is the one foreign local yokel. He qualified 13th and finished 19th at the Daytona beach race and won $75 for his efforts! For the 1959 Daytona super speedway race he bought a Marshall Teague prepared Impala that ended up costing him $10,000 and he finished 32nd earning $100!?! 72 Bobby Johns was from Miami, FL and this car represents the Chevy he raced to 3rd place at Darlington in 1959. Johns went on to win 2 races in his NASCAR career and actually raced a Colin Chapman prepared Lotus at the Indy 500 finishing 7th in 1965. This car represents the local yokel who will be a future star and is just cutting his teeth at the big time.
