Thanks,

 In talking with my uncle (Ted on the list) he ran in '46 with a Crager 4 
cylinder in the same car (98mph) He then converted it to the '42 Merc 
flathead and ran it that way in 1947 (119.47).  The car was a 29 roadster 
pickup that bears a remarkable resemblance to the car that Larry Shinoda is 
pictured with in the Vern Tardel book, How To build a Traditional Ford Hot 
Rod on page 9. 

If anyone knows what color that car was it could help us determine if, in 
fact, it is the same car.
