    I know some photos of the Motoreco belly tank car were posted here somewhere years ago..but I can't seem to locate them. I have seen a photo or two with AJ Foyt as the driver too. Anyone have any photo of that car. Thinking about reproducing the car.

    Talk about a blast from the past. From the mid 1950s to 1970 Luther at Motor Reconditioning in Houston was the person to see for strong engines and out of the box solutions. I was just a kid trying to learn and a nobody but he would always take time to answer questions. There is nothing left of the old building except a concrete slab and the big Oak tree, most of that area of town is being turned into big ugly Condos.
