I been there, you get the quart bottles and when the wife ask how many beers you had you can tell her two or three with out telling a lie
The midgets first appearance outdoors in Indianapolis was at Butler University bowl . Paul Russo, Tudy Marchese , and Jimmy Snyder , are in their cars and Indianapolis 500 winner Louie Meyer is to the right of starter Bill Vanderwater
This # 98 car burned the famous Midnight Oil in Gasoline Alley back in 1961--62 --63-- and 1964 when Parnelli Jones drove this car in the Indy 500 for popular J.C. Agajanian

That's actually Jerry Unser in the cockpit of the #18 car at the August state fair race. Brother Bobby is reaching down into the cockpit and twin brother Louie Unser is at the right rear. Sutton drove the #48 Sumar car that day. Jerry missed the show. Thanks for posting the great photo!
"so I'm telling you for last damn time you don't like the way I'm driving get your ass up here and you can drive"
I have a friend who put those stupid Talbot mirrors on his '62. Inspite of my ridicule, he still insists on keeping them. The stick-on JCWhitney vent in the cove is a mark of an idiot. The incorrect hubcaps are another thing. Thinner white walls were an actual improvement that we all liked in those days, at least on our Cadillac. That being said, I ran blackwalls on chrome rims on my '58 Corvette and loved that look. I dislike white walls of any sort on Corvettes.
I'd leave everything as is. Just to piss off know it all arrogant, name calling jerks that think they're experts and can't even agree amongst themselves. WTF cares what any one else likes?
