Why even ask? There's not a doubt in my mind that FR has details aplenty, probably down to the color of socks the builder wore on the last Thursday of the preparation of the car.

Let's talk the brass into buying it. We could use it to burn the weeds off the course!!! Maybe use it to dry the track!!! Roast weenies ? We would have to offset the cones and timing lights a bit.

I think EBay is OK, but I rather watch it go on the auction block on a Barrett/Jackson show in any city. Wonder what it might bring?
I'd be willing to bid on the steering wheel.

2nd time it's been listed in the last few months.
Don't think it got a single bid last time.

Waldo Stakes of the Sonic Wind LSR wannabee club posted this.
Scroll down to "I was at Bonneville with Harvey Shapiro, Slick Gardner and Franklin Ratliff in 1990". Or do you even need to . . .

Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.
