Cass Casmir and his barnfind late 1920s-era Fronty Ford 88 (thank you Larry W! I found this in the Speed Secrets magazine!)

“A few years ago, I was looking for spokes and wheels, and when I went to see them, I noticed something sticking out from under a large tarp in the garage,” he said. “It was a partially disassembled sprint car.”

Casmir's speedster has lettering for local Indiana and Illinois businesses in existence during the 1920s.

 “I have no factual history on this car, and we don’t know for sure if it was raced at Roby Speedway,” he said. “But there was no other racetrack around, and the wording (advertisements) on its sides show local companies of the time.”

Roby Speedway was a one-mile dirt track located between 108th and 112th streets in a small town named Roby, Ind., near the the Indiana/Illinois state boundary, that once drew thousands of spectators in the early days of auto racing, from 1920 to 1936

notice the unusual bars under the front axle! 

Those were required by some racetracks to prevent death and destruction if a wheel fell off or broke an axle!

here's an example
