Anybody got a pic of the trunk on the 39? Looking for a good image of the skunk and lettering. Anybody know the story behind the Polecats and the skunk? |

Try here: http://www.3widespicturevault.com/FRONT%20PAGE%20STUFF/Fun_Games_Names_1.htm> There is a picture at the top of the page but scroll down to the 2nd mention of it with an explanation.
There is also a picture of the skunk in this series. http://www.3widespicturevault.com/Double_Pick_Ups_Pic_Vit/H04.24.11_039_TAS_REA_0060D_5.htm

Hey Rick, I hear through a mutual friend that John has a new tribute car. Any truth to that. Hear it's a WM tribute. |

He's already got it, and it's the real deal, not a tribute. |

My mistake. I understand it is the car that Ray Neary had before he passed. |

On the Polecats and the skunk on the trunk. I beleive it has to do with the fact that at the height of the success with the #39...the Tas and the team went to so many events...the crew would simply go from track to track with the car and the "accomodations" where they slept and took care of bodily cleanliness left much to be desired and after a while...it was said that they smelled like....well, polecats and hence the name and the image of the skunk on the trunk lid. |
