Someone could buy T-Bird on the cheap.... (I talk with the owners every day).

As for Hartford & USAC... the problem with Michigan is that hardly anyone even knows what USAC is let alone a Silver Crown car.. (sadly).
The USAC midgets ran Hartford a couple times in the early 1960's. Saw Parnelli Jones and Jim Hurtibise compete one night. Think the sprints have been there, also.
