What makes it even cooler is that it was set up to be flat towed

Back in the day when you flat towed your race car you would either pull the driveshaft, or bolt on free wheel'n hubs on the rear axel...remember those things? Open trailers were a luxury! and don't forget the shoe polish on the rear glass " Race Car In Tow"

But I think Hal can still remember riding into town to the blacksmith shop and having a new set of shoes put on :moon
