' Ford stopped the assembly line to allow Holman-Moody to buy bare bodies and parts for construction of 1959
Thunderbirds. The cars came without needed parts. Turner won races at
Champion Speedway,
Lakewood Speedway, and the
Southern States Fairgrounds.'
'59 Yup!
Here is some more Holman Moody stuff.
'Holman-Moody enteres the "World's fastest Falcon" in the
12 Hours of Sebring in 1962. The car was driven by
Marvin Panch and
Jocko Maggiacomo. Holman-Moody also prepared a small-block AC Cobra, driven by
Augie Pabst'
Go long track racing in short wheelbase narrow track Falcon?
Believe that is why they are PROfessional drivers.Not for me though.
Holman and Moody applying their expertise to a Cobra? That sounds really
interesting.I believe that is speedway and super speedway racing.That is a
little different than road racing.So Holman Moody would be the people for that.
Back to the book.Second half of book should be pretty interesting!
It is the biggest and most packed with info of these kinds of books I've gotten.
