Where's the steering gear ? Not RH, not LH.

Rack and pinion with centered column ?

I know this isnt the car your looking for but thought Schlafer's car looked pretty cool.
Not to take away from Schlefer's car here but how about Fuzzy's Gremlin. I remember this car from when i was a kid seeing it race "up here inside the cheese curtain". Gotta love that Gremlin!

This is the car I was thinking of (#26) from the '82 Little 500 I think. No pic, but a link to Eckert's data base.

And USAC at Winchester 1978

I'd have liked to see that car run on dirt, cause you know back then they ran the same car on both, there weren't specialty built pavement cars.
