Those were some real race cars, built by real people, and driven by real men, I hung around Dan Walls garage in those days, and Crockett drove for him a lot, Dan had the baddest flatdead Ford 6 cyl there ever was, Nugent Autos Supply, Columbus Auto Supply, Kings Taxi Midgets, man, what an era to grow up in.

I remember those days also Bob. I grew up across the street from Dan Walls. My Father had his garage on the opposite corner(Casey's Auto Service)from Dan. I used to go over and watch Dan and the guys work on the 110.Then they would take it out 14th street for a test run.I also remember you at Columbus Auto Supply. I used to run parts for my Dad occasionally. Dave Foist
