    This I really like. I'd like to see more modern builds use this car or cars like it as inspiration.

  11. This particular 55 is featured in this month’s OSR magazine. Seems it was inspired by Roth’s 55, as well as the cars from American Graffiti and Two Lane Blacktop. It’s owned by a cat named Hollywood Hank.

    It was located in Somerset, KY. Some of the old racers now run the Somernites Cruise. Track shut down in the early 70s. My Uncle ran there for years and several of the guys I knew growing up like Dean Mink, Lonnie Dillingham, Larry Barnett etc.
