Re: Junior Johnson Passes On
There is a German expression, "ins Fett getreten" that I think applies here. Stepped in some grease (and tracked it all over the place).
Oops, or source, but gawd either way!?!
Calls for a "bootleg turn" I think. I have great respect for both Junior Johnson and Kube . . .
Anyway, there was a fascinating post a few years back about the suspension modifications used back in the day on those '40 coupes that were used for running moonshine. Don't remember if it was here or on the hamb, but involved four houdaille shocks on the rear, and a stiffer spring, as I recall.
The old man worked at Blair's speed shop back then, and told me they would build full-house flatheads and ship them out to the great Southeast.
Some more hearsay for you!
