Lee Salmans brother and wife with a project they plan to restore. This is the car Lee drove in the 50's. Lee was from Larned and a very popular driver on the Merrick Circuit etc. Lee now lives in Utah and from an e-mail quite a while back is still involved in racing as the flagman at a track out there.

Now if someone would do the #88 Rocket Don Sprier drove in the late 60's we would have the two favorite drivers out of Larned covered again. The body is still around I've been told.

Was this car always at Larned, Ks. I went out and looked at a old 34 Ford sedan at Larned several years ago not the same car. Thanks Dwane

His name is Alan Salmans, don't know his better halfs name. We will have to wait and see which one of those Hudsons gets on the race track first, The other one is Orville Beckels old #98. Dwane
