Hi, I recently purchased a old four bar Midget for my father to restore. Unfortunately he passed this year and I am trying to figure out what it was, the serial number on the dash was removed but I traced the car back to a #15 George Middleton Pizza Hut car from St Louis. It has since been 95% restored and is in great shape. Does this sound familiar to anyone? How would I verify this other than the previous two owners giving me this info. Anybody still out there that might have drivin this? Worked on it? Please contact me, any help would be appreciated.

That tail looks like a car Billy or his son Tim Mehner owned in the Seventies or early Eighties, not sure though. Mehners' lived in Dansville, IN.

I worked on the Pizza Hut miget through the late '60's and '70's..
I will try to get in touch with the original chief mechanic to chime in. I'm sure he would remember everything you need to know.

Mickey,

Just posted my Beast Copy Ecotec midget on Indiana Open Wheel & noticed your post.

Roger West drove this call a year or two in USAC and maybe some in UARA out of Joliet IL.
Roger lives in Joliet his wifes work number is the only one I could find (630) 305-5740 her name is Rosemary West of Remax Real Estate both her & Roger are agents. Just call her & she'll get Roger. I think he drove the Pizza Hut car indoors at the astrodome around 1969-70.
