I always thought Calvin was one of the better southern Indiana drivers. The car looks very familiar.

I'm not sure who owned the car at the time the picture was taken, but the car looks like it might be a former Dizz Wilson piece.

jim, it was one of maude smith's cars. the car was painted red later. it was a leffler car. calvin did a great job for us. in 1975 he had a 20 win season for us. the car has been found and restored by a guy in new castle ind. jim if you would like to see more of her cars go to queencitymotorsports.com and go to pic's to see slide show of her cars.
