Hello, I’m Jeff Goodell, Ron’s son. I was probably 13 when my dad built that car. He did all the work on that car for the cost of parts only. I remember him working on it for extremely long hours knowing that it would help his career.
I think that is the car that was voted as Best Engineered at the US Nationals. There was a magazine article about the car. I may have some pictures I could dig up and email you.
My dad was killed in a car wreck. He was thrown from a 55 chevy that he had been working on, about 1/4 mile from our house.
Jeff
