Default 1969 L78 300 Deluxe Post - Buck Kinney

Bucks old 1969 L78 300 Deluxe post car still living on!
I know there has been a few threads on this page about Bucks cars / Mussallem Garage here in British Columbia along with many old pictures of his cars.
The current owner finally got it back out at the local racetrack Mission Raceway a few weeks ago. What a treat it was to help tinker on such a historical local car at the race track.

Low 11's but letting off due to no cage. Hopefully a new cage / roll bar to be installed soon!

Those are part of the OEM seat upholstery that came standard on the 300 Deluxe models in 1969.
