Made this 34 coupe for my younger brother Mario. We used to go to the N.Y. State Fair Labor Day Race every year. The Syracuse (Moody Mile) 1 mile dirt track. Many famous East Coast as well as other Modified greats used to compete. Alas the track is no more. I gave it his lucky #11, and Syracuse colors (Orange and Blue). He got a kick out of it! Hope you do too. Thanks for viewing.

Great job on the modified. That brings back memories for sure. I used to go to the races at the fair every year as well as all the local tracks. Worked with a guy you may have hear of, "Irish" Jack Murphy.

 Sure do! I've eatin' at Murphy's Trackside restaurant. Remember a few side by side battles at the Fair with Murph' and Ten Pins Nolan Swift. Can,t believe they did away with the Labor Day Race.
