Does anyone know who ran the #3 mod at freeport other than hendricks in the 60s and 70s?

Bruce Hoy ran a #3 there around that time.

My father lives in Port Richey, FL and he stopped at a yard sale. My father and the guy got to talking about racing.This guy showed my old man some pics of him and his cars at Freeport. Black #3 mod, and #999 bomber. He said he raced Freeport, and Islip. My dad said he had quite a few trophy's and wins, but doesn't remember the guy's name.

Sorry Walt, While Billy DID register the 999, he never had a car that was 999. His bomber cars were numbered 707 and 666. I was on his crew at his house then. I was too young to get into the pits.

[Dwight Clock]

My 1976 & 77 programs from Freeport show Billy Elkins as the driver of the #999 Bomber.

I had forgotten about Elkins. He did drive a #3 modified also.

Yeah, he had a Pinto #'rd 7$ He then bought S.J. Evionsion's Astre and also # 7$

[Scotty Wolf]

Wasn't one of his cars numbered 7c, ( 7 CENTS)?

[Gravel]

Yeah, he had a full bodied camaro mod #'rd 7c. Raced at Islip a couple of times.
