O.k. , it's been awhile since my last post so here is another one of my cars.
It's a 1958-59 Moss 1/4 midget they were manufactured in Inglewood California.
They built both 1/2 midgets and 1/4 midgets, but they built very few 1/4 cars.
This car was raced out of Houston Texas, it was also raced at the 1959 -60
Tulsa Oklahoma National.
It does have some race damage, but overall it's in good condition.
This is another one of my favorite cars and I hope you like it.

COMMENT:
"This Quarter Midget raced at the Houston Gulf Coast Racetrack in 1958-59. It also raced in Pasadena, TX. in 1960.
You are correct about the participation of this car at the Tulsa Nationals.
This car was driven by the late, Sandra Honea of Houston, TX.
The scoop located on top of the rear turtle hull was the innovation of her late Dad.
The scoop is from a 1955 Caddy. Ironically, her Dad worked at a Cadillac dealership in Houston.
Sandra often wondered what happened to her race car before her passing.
If this car is ever for sale, please contact me immediately. Our plans are to open a Texas Quarter Midget Museum. This car is part of Texas Quarter Midget racing history."
