I converted a Carousel 1 1964 Johnny Rutherford into Ronnie Dumans 64 Roadster for the owner (Steve Noffke) who owns the real car. The tribute car is a lot different than the way the car ran race day but Steve wanted me to make the conversion the way the car raced except for one exception. Race day the car had a white roll bar and frame but the car today has a black roll bar and frame so that is what Steve wanted. He just thought that the black roll bar looked better so the car is race day except for that. Mods include reworking the cockpit/windscreen and adding the bulge in the left hood. Moving the oil cooler tank forward behind the left front wheel and using aluminum tubing for the exhaust. Awesome decals made by Michael (Indycals) Deleted Photo Bucket and added Imgur photos

Thanks. Ronnie was involved in the McDonald/Sachs crash and his car was taken out. He also received some bad burns.

Man that thing pops! That color and the smooth paint job catch your eye.
Really nice, I know Steve is going to love it. I like all the fixes to customize it to this specific chassis.
