by Russ: This is a picture of the Williams # 44 built
by Ken Marriott, as it sits on the trailer in the snow, waiting to head for Daytona Beach
in February, 1958. Note the car has Plexiglas in the window openings and the wiper
necessary to remove salt water, sand and sea gull blood! For me, this was the classic 1937
Ford coupe stock car. Perfect in every way! Red in color with white lettering and pin
stripes. 3 stacks through the hood and a neatly trimmed body! Ken turned the ride over to
Ralph Smith for the regular season in 1958. Ralph put together an impressive record in the
car at Vineland on asphalt and dirt at Alcyon and Middletown. Thanks, Russ Dodge |
