The Mary Ann Foss car is still MIA (I think I know what car it is but the people who could tell me have passed away. Yes, I have spoken to Mary Ann, her brother Pete Jr and son - no one has any idea what happened to it. I do not have any information on the Manhatten Speed Dart (other than it existed) - don't even know if it was a factory built car .

This would explain the early press release with that car, with the early VIN #s, & that the current restored Peddler car is one of the last cars in the first run. As posted before, & what I'VE been lead to believe is the factory backs boys got the early ones. Why would Flynn have such a late #ed car unless he had a second one? .
HMMMM, might be onto something there Mr.J. I kinda like that possibility. Nothing like pulling a rabbit out the hat eh? Definately worth a closer look.
Hey Paul C. Any input here?? Anyone else???
