43 years in a barn, but it had one hell of a racing career before hibernation







Looks amazingly good for having hibernated.. about the only thing that indicates true age are those slicks.

Mike Bamber's old "Silver Dollar" A/GS 1940 Willys

the engine was being rebuilt in it, to make a few passes on the Nostalgia circuit, when a guy teaching his daughter to drive plowed into the barn, missed the Willys, but hit the engine stand and knocked the engine over - cracking the blower case. Lucky that no one was hurt, and that the truck was missed completely
