Here is a shot of the 29 in the 1974 World 600. It's not a super detailed shot but at least gives you an idea of the color and scheme. He's lined up starting 17th.

These are the only two worth putting on here. The others are just enough to tell what car and what make of car. Not sure who to credit these to either. Hope they help.
