Oldfield told me they (Dick and possibly Ted) went through the Chrysler parts warehouse and picked out all the aluminum parts for the car. Dick told me the brakes were terrible when he drove it. Ted had installed wooden brake drums on the front. I wonder who ended up with those?



News to me about the aluminum since the car was built by Spehar to run a steel nose. Dave Koffel told me that because he was one of the ones who commissioned the 4 steel nose/fresh air Hemi '64 cars that year. Also, Wally Booth drove it before Dick O. Dick O used it after he broke the Dart he was running for the NY Dodge Dealers. He never owned the car.
