Comments: Depending on your monitor, this picture really captures the true color of this car along with the gold accent.  I think this is the car that Mike was really beginning to get the job done and then had to give up the seat when he severely injured his foot in an on the job incident.  What a beautiful car...  and quite a front bumper there.  I think it was owned by Emmet Alfrey and I think the car was keep at Emmet's Sinclair on Hamilton Avenue in Somerset, NJ.

03/29/04 Scott Pacich This was a Mulligan chassis. I think it had the independent front suspension on it. While Mike was out of the car Ploski drove it for a bit. I can remember him flipping it between 1 and 2 at Flemington and getting hit in the fuel tank while it was standing on it's tail. It was quite a fire, and
at night it was quite scary.
04/03/04 Bob Becker I think it is the only Mulligan frame built with A Frame front suspention. Great photographer..., I hear his kid's not too bad either!

01/29/06 Joe LaSasso Mike was an iron worker.  He injured his foot when he fell off of a railway car as we were offloading overhead sign structers for the Garden State Parkway. I know as I was the crane operator.  We were working for Whitmyer Bros . Const. Co.from Hammonton, NJ
