Hey all !! I just took ownership of a D700 race car hauler .I've known about it for a long time (20 years) but never knew the history until the past couple of weeks of phone calls and emails .
So the story goes , it started life in 71 as a Sox & Martin hauler . Reid Whisnant bought his 71 Duster from S&M and the hauler .It was repainted in Reids colors and stayed thirds colors for a couple owners . Walt Ballard then took it over with Reids Duster ran the car under the name Yankee Jo .When he was done with it , it was sold to Ron Hubble . Ron sold it to Richard Clark ( Colonial Beach racetrack). It then was repainted and received a fresh factory crate engine (413). It was then passed on to two more owners , and as of yesterday it's mine !!!!! I'll post some pics as soon as I figure out how to do it !

I think it's great that these trucks are being found and restored to their original S&M appearance.I have the 1977 S&M hauler that was built for Don Carlton.Don picked up the truck from Lou on a friday to go to Milan to test.Unfortunatly Don lost his life testing the following day on Saturday.The truck went back to the builder and sat for a short time untill it was purchased by Martin Industries.I will call my good friend Al aka HEMI-ITIS to post some pictures for I amnot that good with these contraptions.
