Pretty hot stuff and she was and still is a sexy babe. 100% real boobs and clean shaven wher it counted. My kind of woman.

I had the great pleasure of meeting Woody some years back shortly before he passed away. I was promoting musclecar shows at the time and he was hanging out with Skip Norman, who was selling old photos.
I had never heard of the man at the time but quickly realized what a jewel he was and was amazed at the things he'd seen and done. We invited him to dinner that first evening and it was one of those times when you look back and wish you'd had a tape recorder lying on the table.
No, not to blackmail some of the people in the stories but just to be able to remember even half of the stories he told Woody just kept going and going and before it was over I was sore from laughing.
He was a giant in the golden years of our sport. It's a real shame that no one ever took the opportunity to interview him at length for the history he lived.
