# 80 Rides Again !!!

[ancrdave]

Fred Strickland had the former Willard Smith-owned sprint car at Zephyrhills... This car has some great history and many of you probaly saw it run around Florida... David Smith was the last to wheel this car which was originally constructed in 1957... He won a ton of races with it and put it on the front row of one of the Florida 500's at Golden Gate.
Photo #1 is Strickland running the car at Zephyrhills a couple of weeks ago...
Photo #2 is David Smith at Plant Field in the late 70's...
#3 is part of an article on Smith...
Pretty neat to see this car still in existence...
