    Worth noting my Uncle Paul Nicolini and Great Grandfather Harry Duncan built those first sidewinders. Jack just knew how to drive them better. Whenever these guys needed the hottest motor they borrowed them from Harry. The Chrismans ran his stuff. Wally Parks and the Suddenly 60 that was one of his. Mostly built by Wilcap automotive they were the best powerhouses around at the time. First the Arduns then the Desotos and Dodges. They couldn't be beat.

    That push truck had a really cool graphic of a castle that said Duncan Built Homes on the side. That purple sort of color become my grandpa's signature color it seems. The dragster he had with Ed Losinski was the same or similar color also with white accents and red Von Dutch striping. The color photos of them are pretty rare. Pictures with the striping clearly visible even more rare.
