RON BETTIS PHOTO PAGE

    Ron's page is done in this color because most of his cars involved this - or something similar, along with either white or black. The page will show three phases of Bettis cars - the original flying tigers, the late model sportsman, and the "new tiger" / ACT late model.

THE ORIGINAL TIGER ERA

THE NEW TIGER / LATE MODEL ERA

This car had to have the Petty number because someone had Ron's #7 after he returned from the military. That might be Wayne in the background.	The #43 Ventura.	A "new tiger", somewhere in Canada.	A sharp Buick Tiger.	They got the 7 back.
		Looks like an ACT late model. Son, Mike is in this picture.
