Rod Perry Photos
One has to do some historical detective work to put all the peices of this picture and article together properly. "The Blue Jewel" has the early paint/number scheme and the early wing, and the feature win stickers are starting to accumulate. I personally feel that this picture is from around 1964. However, the race in question, the World 300, was run from 1966-1969. What I personally think is that this pictures is possibly from a foray to the Mobile International Speedway, perhaps to run the World 200, which was run in 1964 and 1965. The Perry and Hamke duo toured all over Florida and the Southeast, wherever big money races were run.
