Awesome Bill

Post by RCMike »

Am I confused? Or is Awesome Bill from Dawsonville standing in front of a '61 Comet in the new Napa ad?

It's definitely him.. The ad is Bill, Chase Elliot, and Dale Jr.

I was wondering about the car.. Knew Bill would be with some kind of Ford product..

Guess I got confused.. Those lights and the side trim said Comet to me.. Thanks Fred

I saw that yesterday & I thought of you Fred! except I think your hair was stronger than Bills, or maybe gravity isn't as strong in the great white north! How about posting that pic of you back in the day again for a comparison ? :idea: :idea:
btw, where you in the rock band called RUSH ? :lol:

That is a '62 Fairlane, a '63 doesn't have the cut back into the fender at the grill.
