Happy Birthday Dutch!! My father started taking me racing when I was 5 years old in the 70"s and you were my favorite driver! I always went to the pits to see you and your car. What a great era of racing! I hope that you have many more wonderful years ahead.

How about Dutch's second-place finish in the 1969 Permatex 300 at Daytona! I remember seeing Dutch's car from the Permatex race on display at Fulton Raceway later that Spring.

Unfortunately that race is also remembered for other reasons.

Well never fails, I'm always a day late & a dollar short. Happy Birthday Dutch! One of your cars was my dad's  street car. (Red Barkley)  you bought it down by Roseland Park from Glenn Dean. Thats how our family got into racing, to watch you race the family car.  At the age of 6 yrs old dad started taking me to the races. By this time you were in the blue & gold #7 coupe. And we did follow you around from track to track. It didnt take long for you to become my hero, and to this day you still are, and always will be. (Thanks dad for takin' me to the races.) Thanks for doing what you did so well Dutch, Race! Happy Birthday! Bob B.
