car identity/Fremont Ohio swap meet years ago

rrc · 6/8/10, 7:53 PM

Its wishful thinking that I'll find an answer, but i'm turning the clock back to the very late 1980's or very early 1990's. A friend of mine from PA bought a Nance chassis made in 1982 at the fremont, ohio swap meet which some Indiana folks come to.Frame was painted black (one time before orange) and looked like it hadn't been run since that black paint was put on it.It came with a plain unlettered sort of pale yellow hood,dash,floor pan and side panels and is in very good condition.He thought the guy selling it said he was selling it to get some go-kart equipment.Unfortunately, no names.Does this sound familiar to anyone? I know its been a long time ago and this is a long shot but there are many knowledgeable folks with good memories on the board. Any clues or info?? thanks, RC

you might want to post on Pitgate.com. They are mostly Northern Ohio sprint car fans and might have a guess.

That may have been a car that I once owned. I bought a Nance car from Jim Linder when I first started racing sprint cars. What information are you looking for? If you can give me some more information I may be able to determine if in fact that was the car. I dont remember what I did with it but I did go to the Fremont Swap meet every year and sell some of my racing items.
