Thanks Ron.  Will do.  Speaking of your brother "Leadfoot", I found a pic of him taken at Shangri-la in 1979.  I was the one responsible for this lettering "job".  This was my first...and last...effort at lettering a race car.  I hung up my white shoe polish right afterwards.  Although, looking back at it now, it's not too bad for a 13 year old kid. :)

Happy Holidays!

Jay... I turned 10 that summer and it was the last year Dad raced on a weekly basis, against Ed and the rest of the Street Stock class at Shangri-La. I remember Ed getting faster that year and showing improvement.
