This is a couple of Fonda Speedway (NY) favorites, the ever popular driver Irv Taylor and the Welch family owned #77, also known as "Miss Pauline". Together and at the end of the night, you would find them both amongst the top 10 finishers but,........ Irv had a reputation as a utility driver and would often leave the Miss Pauline for a spell, leaving her available for anyone needing a ride that night. She always delivered and is credited with advancing many successful careers over the surprising ten or so years she was a Fonda regular. Notice it says "Miss Pauline" on the roof where you would expect to find the drivers name. She was one tough ole girl and the Fonda Fans just loved her. BTW, Miss Pauline was sold to the Welch family by previous owner Rollie Johnson. Jack Johnson's Dad.
