Shields construction
 
Does anyone remember who was in the Shields construction 56 sprinter in between Kelly and Randy Kinser ? It's when Kelly left the team and went to run the Nance house car. Then Randy drove it the following year.

Just a guess, but was it Brad Devereaux?

The Shields boys didn't start until the later 80s. This was after Randy drove the car. Todd ran the 56 and Troy in the 156.

Re: Shields construction
 
From Martinsville area, raced several years, won several races at multiple tracks. Originally drove the McClure 83. Not sure of the year but sustained a head injury in a bad wreck, I think on one of the mile tracks. He retired from driving and now lives in Florida.

I believe Larry was injured during the running of the Hoosier Hundred; seems like early eighties.

Amati did drive for Shields Lumber back in the early 80's......Shields told me at a banquet that he had to relieve Chuck of his driving duties because he had created quite a sprint car junkyard behind his barn....
