Bob MIGHT have a picture of Junior Garrison's "Wicked Willys," the '40 Willys coupe that won B/Gas and the "Little" (or was it "Street") Eliminator at INDY in '62. It had traction bars that ran from the axle housing to the rear cross-member!

I'm pretty sure that Bill Taylor (of Coleman/Taylor Transmissions) had a lot to do with that car.
