Great looking car owned by Matt McMann and driven by drivers Craig
McCaughey and Hank Rogers Jr. According to John Mc, this is a Mulligan
car and I seem to remember someone saying that this car may have become the
Bob Ayres #69. Matt McMann had many drivers through the years. There are photos in The Vault of Tommy Elliott driving the purple #4 on the asphalt at Oldbridge in the 60's. Sometime during the very early 70's, Matt fielded the purple #4 sedan that was run on the dirt mostly by Craig McCaughey. In 1974 Al Michalchuk drove a the old sedan with a new Gremlin body for McMann for a few weeks, but a month later, Matt put Craig (or possibly Hank) back in the seat. The car pictured above replaced that first Gremlin (different frame, probably same Gremlin body). I'm not sure, but I think this may have been one of the last racecars owned by Matt McMann. |

01.27.11 | Brett Werth | My dad Bill Werth did the body on Matt's cars. The last #4 was sold to Bob Ayers who drove it at Flemington and East Windsor in 1975. |
01.27.11 | 3-Wide | Does anyone know for sure if Hank Rogers Jr was a relative of Matt McMann (maybe son in law?) |
