Hi Everyone I just wanted to let you know that I've set up a gallery of images that I've take at the IMS museum over the year - consider them reference shots. Calhoun, there's more than a few shots in there that I think might interest you. As they rotate cars in and out, often because they are on loan, some of these cars might never be seen at the museum for a long time, if ever again. A couple images that pertain to recent topics - a Lotus 29 cockpit shot, and some images of the 1920 Monroe Engine. www.pbase.com/indyboosler/ims_museumI plant to also ad a gallery of vintage cars I've shot outside of the museum. |

Mike...GREAT PHOTOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Neat stuff.....like the 1956 Watson and the Johnny Lighting Special...Good stuff!!! I love the Hall of Fame Museum! It's a very neat place and very clean! It's also cheap to get in and worth it at twice the price...Thanks for sharing Mike.
Best to you
Russ

Those are where the cam-over style jack was placed during pit stops...Perhaps someone will post a picture to illustrate what I am referring to...

Great pics, Michael! Thanks for the link. Did you get a look at the right side of A, Sr.'s Cummins March? I've always heard that on raceday, the right sidepod "Cummins" was all capital letters like on the rear wing. I've never seen a pic that confirms tthat. Does anyone know for sure?

thanks bill, i know what your talking about with that type of jack.
i recently watched a video where the guy on the front of the car with that same type of jack was hanging in the air as he wasn't heavy enough to work it!

Regarding the Cummins car, it was all caps on the right side only - left side and rear wing were upper/lower. I actually built my wrong assuming the all caps went on the rear wing. Page 80 in the 87 Hungness yearbook has a good race day right side shot that shows the all-caps and the rear wing in upper/lower.

Thanks for clearing that up! I always thought the rear wing was caps, too.
