    This is a modern picture but it sure has the early look. I bet that it has been in storage for a long time. I wish that I knew where it was. I would love to talk to the owner about it

    This 39 looks a lot like the one that you posted.

    Ron Hassel is in the right lane in the 40. I don't know about the 39.

    Blown Ardun in the Safeway Sandblasting C/GS Willys. These guys made most of the blower stuff themselves...the engine later went into a chopped Fiat-bodied competition coupe that Norm Wilcox drove.[/QUOTE]
