Was this the Bill Hoy car as well?
Thanks Bryan... its cool that there are still guys out there runnin these cars... You may remember the car Truman sold/traded to The McKinney's in the later '70s? I believe he has it back now. They are good friends of mine(Roy, the father passed away 2009), Mike(the son) still has their 2nd car...its tubbed, as Roy ran it in SS/IA trim for a number of years. Mike drove the E/S(Truman's) car and won the Indy Nats in 1977 when he was 16-17yrs old. He is still an awesome bracket racer, and HIS son Marty too. Got your PM and will give you a call sometime....THanks
