Pinewood Derby Car


I have to give credit for this post to my Dad, so this one's for you Pop! Recently, he stumbled upon these old photos of me and wanted to reunite them with the actual wooden car (which miraculously survived my childhood!) As you can see, I took the design of the thing very seriously. It was inspired by the little Hot Wheels car in the pictures. I guess it's a 1936 Auburn 852 (in yellow and brown). I've always loved old cars.

Anyhow, the car never won any races but I did get a prize for best design! Ha! : )
