Re: Dick Harrell drag car (new thread)
Tim,
I guess I can start with the story as I was sorting through the remainder of your Mr. Norm's Memorabilia with Ricky Smith. Kevin Hand was only a few Radio Flyer Wagon lengths away from us, but focused on closing a Multi Yenko T-Shirt deal. There were quite a few other list members present as well.
She had her finger raised and pointed towards the car as she inquired who it belonged to. I had never met any of the Gibb's, so I didn't know who she was for sure untill you told me. for all I knew it could have been Dick Harrell's daughter or someone else.
I pointed you and your Father out to her and she commented, as she walked over to meet you, that "I have trailered that car at least 150 times back and forth from the race track". She did appear too young to have trailered the car on her own but ,I became aware of what seemed to be taking place. She appeared to be ,almost mezmorized and drawn to the car as she walked towards it.
Once the two of you started talking about the history of the car and looking over the old clues and tell tail signs of its heritage,i just tried to give you some space.
I did hear her say that as far as she and her mother were concerned that they had just found the back-up Dickie Harrell/Fred Gibb funny car.
Please fill us in on what I missed?
