I've attached photos of the model of Clyde "Woody" Kelly's # 4 Ford flat head coupe.  The model was built by Woody's son, Buck (my cousin). This hot rod competed mostly at the Old Bridge and Hightstown Speedways back in the late 50s, early 60s.  The 1st photo is of the actual car is with Georgiana Kelly (Buck's mom) while competing in a powder puff derby.  The 2nd photo is of the #4 with driver Mel Ely at the car's sponsor, Morrissey Ford in Bordentown, NJ.  The 3rd photo is Woody kneeling next to his #4 hot rod.  This car has always been special to me as my dad, Carl lettered it. Georgiana was my dad's sister and Mel was my dad's brother.  A family deal for sure.  The original photos are owned by Buck. Scott Ely
