I believe he was the guy who made the update fiberglass bodywork for the Kurtis midget chassis? I had a Peck body on the '47 Kurtis/ChevyII that I raced in the late 60s.

Pretty sure he was as he did a lot of fiberglass work which, between that and smoking probably did him in. He had that distinctive flatter nose with the smaller, horizontal grill for the Kurtis midgets.

Mr. Bill Gardner,

The www.600RacingMidwest.com site has the replica vintage INEX Thunder Roadsters scheduled to race on Sunday the 28th of Sept. at Winchester Speedway as well. The drivers could include Nelson Stewart of Avon IN, KOIL Tour points leader James Edsall(Last Chance Wrecker Service), Al Renner(Super Wrench), TJ Sneva from Speedway IN, "Downtown" Darrel Brown from Trafalgar and the young hotshoe Tony Wachter from Brownsburg.

This is a chance to see '60's vintage cars compete on the High Banks!

Sincerely,
Tom Monroe

Bump to the top

Looks like, on Sunday, there will be more vintage cars showing up at Winchester, from the Saturday Jungle Park meet

Mr Gardner, You should add a vintage/historic forum to this sight. I can assure you that it would quickly become one of the most active forums.
