Bruce,
A friend has a picture of an Indy 500 car that was built in the back shop at
his grandfathers Ford dealership. I think it was in Burbank ... 1935
vintage I think from the grille and some of the panels. They placed rather
high up in the final standings ... Ford V8 powered. Now those were the
days.
