Historic Print #26: Tommy Davis' Street Machine (1940)

Regular price $ 20 Unit price  per 

Tommy Davis was the owner of this wild street machine back in 1940. It was supposedly put together by Homer Farneman using a Miller race car chassis and a narrowed Model A body before being passed onto Eugene Von Arx and then Tommy. Tom rebuilt it in ’41 and had 362 louvers punched in the hood and side panels at ten cents each. The car was no slouch with the Olds Straight-eight power, having run 113.92 mph at Harper Dry Lake in '42. It was last spied in the mid-’50s in Central California as a used up circle track ride.
