Yankee Peddler Mustang

I'm the oldest son of late Jimmie Smith, a regular at OCIR. Jim raced a '65 Mustang "Yankee Peddler" and was Wilson Ford Drag Club president at the close of the 70s. Originally from Long Beach California I came from a family and neighborhood full of gearheads, some of them legends. Richard Bays, Gene Conway, and George Schrieber were a few within walking distance. I attended my first drag race at age 2 at Lions.
