That's right! A now third Gober Sosebee racecar has been restored by Bud Layton of Cartersville Ga. This car is a white/black #50 with a chrome dash! The story behind the dash was that back in the early 50's, Gober was transforming it from one of his racers to a street rod for his wife, Vaudell, who is a volunteer at the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame. The car was then wrecked, then turned into a sugar car before Vaudell could drive it. When Mrs. Sosebee drove up to the museum today, we had the car covered in our "winner's circle" at the museum. As she was walking up to the door, I called to her that we had something to show her. That's when we pulled the cover and her eyes lit up. She was at a loss for words, and probably a few tears of joy. She climbed inside and checked out her chrome dash. Then one of Sosebee's sons, Brian was present to take his mother for a test drive.
For a cold day in North Georgia, many warm-hearted folks, certainly made the day for a sweet lady!
And with the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame CEO, Gordon Pirkle.
And the car during it's racing days. Note that the black car below is the three time modified winner at Daytona which is on display inside the museum.
