As mentioned a few weeks ago, for some reason, a while back, I was thinking about colors of race cars... and how all these year's later, what cars come to mind when a particular color is mentioned.... 

So for this week... let's go with "BLUE."  

It could be a modified/sportsman, dirt/asphalt, sprint car, street stock/late model, stock car, indy car.... whatever, as long as it is a car that you think of when "BLUE" race car is mentioned:

So, what cars and or driver's do you remember driving "BLUE" cars?

Please provide car #, driver's name, and track raced at if you think it'll help us know which car you're referring to.

As mentioned at the top of this post, please delete the Subject Line and put the Driver's Name and/or Car # in the Subject Line of the post you are creating. That way, people can see the names that have been provided at a quick glance without combing through multiple posts to see if the driver they were going to add had already been provided.

Let's see what you guys come up with....

Mark Lenhart 47.  Painted dark blue because the Chevy pick up Mark bought to tow it was blue.

These photos are of Chic Ronan's 'blue" R2s.  The Ford coupe coupe with the white trim is the first R2 that Chis ran.  It was replaced by the Tobias chassised Vega.  After a rough ending to the season at Windsor, the Vega body was replaced by the Ford coupe body.  Scott Ely 

Forgot to mention that Johnny Leach painted Chic's coupe (replaced the Vega).  Chic thing.asked how much he owed for the paint job.  John replied nothing.  Then he said,  "Just put Quality Auto Body on the car somewhere and we'll call it even".  As you can see, Chic did his part of the deal.  Scott Ely

This is my Mom's photo taken of Jackie Moschera's first hot rod, which he bought off of fellow racer Stubby Stevens.  I own the photo, which I believe was taken in the early 60s.  Scott Ely

Attached are my Mom's pics of Lenny Boehler's #3 and # 75 BLUE (trust me they're blue, pics are close to 60 yrs old) hot rods, both taken back sometime in the mid to late 60s.  It says Bugs Stevens was in the 75 at Trenton while I'm assuming it was Stevens also in the 3 but do not know its location.  Scott Ely

Attached is my Mom's photo of Ed Flemke in the 79 BLUE coupe.  I found on the website "EddieFlemke.com" that Ed drove this car, owned by Dave Welch and Greg Mills, in 1969.  The photo was taken by



Fred Smith of Kirkwood, NY.  I now own the photo.  Scott Ely
