Joe, I may have some in the shop, PM me with your address and I'll get some to you. If I don't have any I'll call Jeff and get you some.

I spend more time on MSTRC so you might PM me there as well.

I don't know how many are still around, but we have a Stewart champ car in the garage at our shop. Al Thomas bought it from Jim Whiteside (when Jim was still racing). Good car. Handled very well. We last ran it in the late 90's at 4 crown.

My first race car was a Stewart micro actually come to find out it was the first micro he built. We got the car in '98 and the last time it was on the track was '87 I think when Jay Ervine won the Arizona A class multi state championship. My dad and I pulled the old 250cc Vtwin and installed a FTZ Honda 250 2stroke. In 1999 I won the Arizona 250cc state championship. After 2000 we pulled the 250 out and started work on installing a 600cc. I never got to see the car finished with the 600cc motor. My dad lost the car in a divorce and she sold it in 2001-02 to someone in Arizona. I'd love to find that car.

Hello all. I found this thread through a Google search. I recently picked up a beautiful Stewart Chassis and was told that it is quite possible that it is the final chassis completed before Rick's passing.

I am brand new to the Midget/Mini world, coming from Winged Outlaw Karts. I had no idea about the history, heritage, and quality that comes with the car and it was a joy to read about this great racer and fabricator.

I am looking for any information, tips, tricks that can help me out with getting this roller race ready. At the moment, I'm trying to figure out which body panels, hood, etc will best fit. I want to change colors and update the style a bit. I plan to run mostly with D2 Midgets next season but am going to hang on to the wings in case I want to pick up and go winged racing.

Attached is a photo of the car in Lightning Sprint configuration and thanks in advance for any help you all can offer me.

I'd love to hear some more cool stories and see photos of some of Rick's later model midget chassis to get some ideas too.
