29. Peter Darrah: Dirt Track Racer

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.
