    This is one of my all time favorite 32 5w's (Texas history)
    Bobby Knighton out of Houston I think
    Ran in the altered class the cars name was "Motor Reco"
    I pulled the photos off the Texas tracks thread
    If anybody else have history and more photos post them here

  2. Austinrod...someone has incorrectly labeled that as "Motor Rico" should be "Motor Reco' as in Motor Reconditioning,Houston,Texas.....I saw this car run many times at the old Caddo Mills track

    Old thread, but I saw a pic of this car on Instagram and really thought it was cool. Anybody know what chassis he ran on the car. Very tough to tell in the pictures, but can't see if it's a channeled over a 32 frame or maybe Model A or a complete one off custom?
