    I am looking for info on the winner of the 1952 Roadster Show AMBR. The winner's name was Bud Crackbon (the spelling might be a little off.) My wife has become a friend of his widow, now probably in her 80"s. Any info or pictures would be appreciated.

    Quick search of the internet turned up these items.

    FROM Street Rodder Mag (Online)
    In 1952, The Ramblers entered seven cars in the show and came away with just as many awards. A**** them was Bob Crackbon, club president, winning the AMBR for his '25 roadster pickup.
