The problem with having an artistic eye is that you always end up making more work for yourself. -Cleatus on the HAMB

Don't know.  A buddy spotted it up by the Canuk border and shot some pics he emailed to me.  I haven't made it up there to check it out.  I have directions kind of, and I have been in the area, but no names or address.  I should try google earth it and see if it shows up.  

It's just an old POS Chevy on a pipe frame.

You note Ed's Body Shop was one of the sponsors. There was an Ed's Body Shop in Bismarck, but he and his son are no longer with us. I made a copy and showed it to one of the old racers but he couldn't ID it.

When I was around 10-12ish (10 years ago) I was riding with my dad and he stopped at a junkyard somewhere outside of fargo, possibly on hwy 75?, to look for some buick parts.  I remember sitting right outside of the building there was an old early 30s-ish race car.  From what I remember, the body looked alot like that car (the OG car in question with the really weathered white paint).  But maybe it wasnt.  Anyone know the yard?  Im guessing if you know where im talking about, you remember the car.

Yep, I remember that coupe body. I think it was a 33 Chevy. Was up by Hwy75 Salvage. God knows where it is now. I wonder if its the same one we saw going from Dallas' to Ada. Anyone else remember seeing that that day?
