Comments:	Comment: Harry Charles in the #40 with "Joes Steak Shop - 274 South Main St - Phillipsburg" on the side. Must have just rolled this one off the trailer as it still has the rags jammed up inside the shorties. (I'm told guys did this after the engine was shut down to keep the cold air from rushing inside and warping the exhaust valves... Not sure if that is true but it kind of makes sense I guess.)

05.12.15	Bob Burd	This car has a little bit of history. I think Camel and maybe Rich and Sparky were at Chet Crane's junk yard when they pulled that 36 chevy coach out. I think it was the last car that Chet had that was cut up for the track. I'm going by memory, but I believe Camel went on to say that car was really nice- too nice for a stock car especially in the late 60s. Soon it would be painted blue, with originally George Sleight and then Russ Stecker as the driver and numbered 2A. I believe it was the first Walt Garret 2A right before the 39 chevy coupes.
