I went through my copy of "The Miller Dynasty" by Mark Dees, turns out that 
the first NOVI ran Indy in 1941 in an old Miller-Ford  Front wheel drive 
chassis. There were as many as three NOVI powered cars in any one Indy 500. The 
last 
one was a Four wheel drive wrecked in practice by Greg Weld in 1966. The 
Ferguson chassis (4WD) was used in 1964, in 1965 Granatelli designed and built 
their own 4WD chassis. Bob in connecticut
