  2. Great article T-Head!!!

    I'm still looking for a good profile pic of the #11 Fronty that Sig Haugdhal drove for Mabel Cody if you ever find any :)

    Thanks as always and Happy New Year, Bill

    I remember seeing that car (or a reproduction of it) at Hershey. The cooling system arrangement is crazy.

    Real racy looking number...certainly a Hotrod in its day...as the cycle race was ramping up the 4 wheelers were also not left by the wayside the evolution had began.

    Cool, as if I don't have enough projects and interests already I have been gathering parts to build a Cycle cart that is a small scale representation of a vintage race car to take to a few cycle cart events. One based on that car could fit right in with cars like these examples that were at the Tieton Grand Prix a couple of weeks ago.
