Gerald was one of the top drivers at Flemington during this period.  This car is what made modified racing so great.  From what I understand this was built from Junk yard parts. Add a great driver, good mechanic, and this powerful race car was one of the best at the square. A few short years later everybody that ran up front had professional built cars. Welds, Kings, and other names replaced these simple cars. The days of cars being built with salvage parts are only a memory on these pages now.
