    March 28 issue has coverage of the NHRA drag racing event at Lions Drag Strip. This is "when the 2-speed transmission in Don Garlits' fueler exploded a few off the start line, seriously injuring the popular driver." It is this incident that is credited with Garlits starting work on a competitive rear-engine fueler.
    Excellent/Very Good condition. Always carefully stored. Minor age browning. Very light, if any, musty odor.
