After 1945, little is known at this time other than the car ran mostly in what was called the East Coast Circuit. To the best of my knowledge, at one time, this car was owned by the famous "Pappy" Hough and driven by racing star, Shorty Cantlon.
While this car is currently painted as one of the Bowes Seal Fast Specials, we don't believe it was raced with this color scheme. We are currently researching to try to gather more information about this particular race car.
