They used to come to Indy, to Dave Dayton's auction over Thanksgiving weekend, and buy up every OLD sprint car they could, I asked one guy when he was loading 4 of them up, what he was going to do with them, and that's about the story I got, they either rented them out, or sold them, you'd be surprised how many of them they could fit in a pickup truck, and a flat bed trailer, funniest thing I ever saw, one they were picking up with a fork lift, and when the wheels left the concrete, it was so worn out, it looked like it had independent suspension on all 4 corners, and before I could stop, I had already said that, and I think the guy didn't like that description, but he went about his business, loaded em up, and headed West!
