Episode 87 . The big saint . Starts about 10:10. An Auto Salvage shop owner is bragging to Joe Friday and shows Joe his project car. "(Joe) Hot rod huh? (Owner) No, not exactly. We don't go in for that kids' stuff.....Strictly scientific as far as I'm concerned.... clocked her up at Muroc at 112 last weekend.....Mallory ignition, milled heads, twin wakefields (?) ...Those drag racers the kids have?....Strictly scientific as far as I'm concerned.... 120 horses under there ". I wonder if they changed Winfield to Wakefield to protect the innocent. Interesting Reference to GM possibly tooling up for the Korean war conflict . Bodywork evaluation starts around 15:50 "no feathering, no orange peel ........ the best repaint job I've ever seen."
