I read all that as a testament to how bullet proof those radios really are.

This story sounds familiar-was this the former D & R drag car?
I knew you would remember the car, and yes Steve @ D&R raced the car. I think I shared the story with you years ago. Excellent memory Bill!!!!

Hmmn, I don't remember this car from my Park Ridge days and I hung out with most of the hot rods in town. It appears that the original owner was about 4-5 blocks away from me. I had a Yellow Z in 1973 so we might have missed each other with our college commutes. Great car though even with all of the issues!
