    The first photo looks like it could be someone's brand new Edmunds. Is there any info on this shot?

    The last photo is Art Scovell in a Alfa at Langhorne. Just before and after the war several ex-Grand Prix type cars were raced on some of the dirt tracks. I always wondered if they continued to use a road racing open differential on the dirt. Seems like the car would be a handful if that was the case.

    Thanks, Rootie.

    I don't have any more info but that shot is from a Edmunds catalog I believe.

    I believe the car on the right hand side of the picture is a Hudson Hornet. It looks to e
    have the smaller version of the Hudson Twin H engine. My dad had a maroon Super Jet with a black top which had that engine. As a little tyke I thought that car was the best ever. It had fender skirts and a continental kit.
