No pictures available so this one is done from memory.
I was pre school at the time living on Comet st in Jacksonville.
My neighbor built this car in his back yard (garage). I was there
when the sign painter painted the graphics.
The local 1/2 mile track ran at least five classes of cars, this
being a "sportsman". My memory is all the sportsman cars
ran flathead Ford engines.
"Blue Angel", Built by Jim & J.R.
Revell 32 Ford body. Skinny BigDonkey tires.
Jack Etheridge was listed as the driver. But I never got to
see the car run.
Jim (my neighbor) built another version of this with a Model A body.
Plan on doing that one when I get a hold of a Model A...

I really like this car. The fact you have this memory and were able to build the car is great for you. Thanks for sharing.
