Received this one via email all the way from North Carolina! "Here are two pics of my first car, 1950 Oldsmobile engine, 303 cubic inch. One of the farm cars laying around, Taken in 1965. Ace Lane pictures. Thanks, Freddy." |

I could be wrong but I think that car was sold to a guy named Jim Scow and it was renumbered 305 for Fred DeGroot to drive. I remember a car that looked very similar to this one in our backyard one day and Fred was working on it. |

You are correct John. Jimmy was one of the kids that went to the races with us. We all went to school together. That was a long time ago lol. |

Yeah it was...no idea how I remember that stuff. They used to call Jimmy "scuz", no idea why because he was pretty clean cut. He owned the 301 sedan for awhile too. Not sure if he bought it from Terhune or the other way around. Jeesh... |

Was that the car Larry Terhune got hurt in? He is a distant cousin. |
