Any idea where the first shot was taken? And the last shot is of Floyd Davis and riding mechanic Dee Toran during Practice at Indianapolis in 1937. I believe Toran was a pretty good midget driver himself.
That's the Lempelius Offy at the Nebraska State Fairgrounds with Harold Leep at the wheel that day. And speaking of midgets, that looks a lot like well known midget owner Charlie Allen standing on the right in that second pic.
Wow! What a great looking car! All these years @45+ of looking through the Fox INDY 500 book I never noticed the car, here it is from the 1937 race. Bob
The Phantom Corsair, built for Rust Heinz about 1936 or so, pretty forward thinking for the time. I wonder how many bottles of ketchup it took to pay for that?
Pretty funny that the Premier Gas logo is on the fall's swimsuit! Now that is marketing. Lol 1 more car, I promise, Rex Winter Dry n windy Lubbock TX
