Everyone cant see all the shows produced on racing related items. This one almost slid past me but I caught the tail end of it and copied these two photos of Ray Everham taking possesion of a Marty Robbins Nashville car he ran.

there may be someone who didnt see this episode on volosity tv or on Utube here

hope you all enjoy this I sure did.

Yes, that project and Evernham's handling of it were well done. I posted about it back in the winter when the episode originally aired:

I went to the Nashville fairgrounds in June 2013 when the car was to be unveiled. Unfortunately, that night's schedule was rained out & postponed a week. The racing resumed but the car didn't return.

But then in June this year, the car was brought back and put on display on Nashville's concourse. What a cool thing to see it up close and personal.

On the show they uncovered the car downtown in front of the Grand Ole Oprey with Robbie Robbins there and the guy Ray got the shell from. Thanks for addition or should I say update on your original post (I didnt see it) . Anyway great piece of history. Thanks TMC for your expertise info.
