My Dad (in the seat) was an outstanding mechanic and welder, and he and his friend Scoops Vanaman built this midget racer in 1953 across the street from the Middle Creek Garage, where Dad worked part time.
They hauled the car all over the Ohio Valley area, racing on short dirt tracks. I think this was the cleanest the car ever was again.

28. Nancy Jo Darrah Litman, July 9, 1941-May 28, 2018
My sister Nancy died a few months ago, leaving me as the sole survivor of our nuclear family. The two of us came out of our parent's WW2 separation and divorce with a few scars, but managed to put together good long lifetimes. She outlived her husband Don Litman and left her three children, Teri, Don, and Jon, to mourn her passing in Wheeling, WV.
