Here Chevrolet Brass are soaking it up on a parade lap prior to one of the 2 separate race starts. The guy in the back seat was filming footage for the Chevrolet "Old Brickyard" film.

That's right, this specific car paced the race on two separate days at the start of the race Tuesday May 30 and Wednesday May 31, 1967.

That’s right!

Firestone and Goodyear were used by the entire commitment fleet on roughly a 50/50 basis. Wide ovals and Speedway’s. The Firestone guys wipped out white crayons and had bragging rights.
