| 12/02/03 | Bob Hummer7 Sr | Peppy ran great wherever He ran. I remember Him mostly from Harmony and Nazareth. He was about the first racer to use a late model body over the pre-war coupes and sedans. He started a new thing that was soon followed with the use of falcon bodies and a few years later the vega and pinto bodies . Eventually the Gremlin bodies were what 90% of the racers used from about 1976 on. |
| 06/29/04 | Joe Meshach | I remember seeing the X9 race at the old Harmony track in NJ too. Peppy was a favorite of alot of people. |
| 12/26/05 | BARRY PURSELL. | I lived in Oxford, NJ. for a few years. I remember Peppy and his brother Tony ran a service station (Crown I believe). Very nice people - never to busy to talk. Even to a kid such as myself. He was my favroite in the sportsman div. at Harmony. I still think he is the reason Bill Elliot was my favrorite nascar driver. Ford power, Ford body, red, and of course the # 9. |
| 02/14/06 | Wes Suydam | I remember Pepe at Harmony. He brought the car in a school bus. |
