Ok, a bit older than most folks on here race, but this is still pretty cool. My Ford parts connection guy restored this car his brother bought in back in 1978.
Raced back in the 70s in Texas.
39 years after the family bought it, the car hit the track this weekend for it's first shake down test and drivers school event.
His pit crew and friends are four brothers, all firemen, that crewed for Buddy Lazier at last year's Indy 500 (a cool story in itself, you can Google it). They all race various cars as well.
Congrats to my friend on his first outing in the "Metal Maiden".
