S/S racer Tom Sheehan took this pic at last year's Indy LODRS race.



Love this car, and any odd or rare cars (great pic, since it pits a pair of rarer cars against each other, with Jerry Bennett's D/SA '62 Plymouth D/SA dual-carb car)

Bob,

At 40,070 lbs., the car should at least be a U/SA car. Whichever class, it's a beautiful piece.

Thanks, Marty. It's ok if you tell them how you blew my doors off at Indy. I thought that my car quit!! About the '62, I thank Steve Weaver for the body work and doing a frame off cleanup. Thanks Bill Sempsrott for advice and motor work. Thanks guys for making a 50 year old dream happen!!

I know all about the hernia operation~! I hope you recover quickly... Thanks Bob, but your car looks pretty cool! How fast is it goin? 60ft times? I think its cool that somebody is actually runnin one of these in Stock... i wonder what happened to all the ones that ran in the '60s?

Hey Bob, If tons of jealousy will make the pain of your operation go away you should be feeling much better real soon.
