I have read all about your car in this thread, but had not seen it until Bobby was doing his In The Lanes Video at Indy and he went on camera down to your driver's side door and it all made sense.

After my Mom passed away years ago I found a black and white pic of myself and my Mom (early circa 1960's tow headed and a huge smile on me w/my 2 front upper baby teeth missing from my very first trip to Disneyland as you may have guessed...in the air riding that Historically highest grossing "B-ticket ride" (BTW according to Walt Disney's inner accountancy notes I recently saw in a Y.T. video -Least cost to run-least upkeep, more riders served, smaller costs to operate historically), Dumbo
The Baby Elephant ride.

I too am in a second childhood, it made me smile, and think back to simpler days when Bobby panned down to your door.

It fits Larry!
