06
1974-07-14 – The #06 was previously the Art Barry #09 that Ed drove to many top finishes in 1971. Art sold it to Dave Spence who in turn sold it to Ed and Rocky Germani, who with Ed had co-owned the ¢ in 1964-66. In 1974 the #06 was driven once or twice by Ed and a few times by Ed Jr, who is shown here unable to avoid the spinning Gene Naumec at Thompson. Heath photo.
