During a jaunt to the deep, dark East Texas forests near Jasper, Texas, and came upon this gem near my cabin.
Built by three-time Indy 500 winner Wilber Shaw, the first appearance of the epic Offenhauser DOHC 4 cylinder race engine, based on the world-beating Miller race engine. Shaw drove it to second place at the Indianapolis 500 in 1935. Great story, exquisite workmanship, great car. Front wheel drive.
