RE: Memphis and the 1949 Indy 500.
Here is another video from 1948 which shows the car a lot earlier in the video between the 1st and 2nd minute.






And a still picture of the car at Indy from 70 years ago. Only someone from Memphis would come up with something like this.

It’s all yours buddy. It’s history so I don’t need the credit. I’ve always been a 50s, 60s, 70s open wheel buff.

Contrary to my screen name(a nickname given to me in Jr High and a modification of Ron Jordan's on air nickname) , i am not an egotist and when possible i try to give credit to those who provide information and/or materials that i use on my page.
