I might ask...who is Wendell? Is it Wendell Scott by chance?

Gary, it should be Wendell Scott! A brave man and my personal hero.

I know Wendell drove modifieds, but this one is a "what if" , i think...

Hey Michael...a very good what if build. I also like Wendell Scot. I've got at least 4 builds that I want to do of his cars. I bought the book "HARD DRIVING" which is about his Driving career from the tough beginning into his NASCAR days. It's a very interesting book that's for sure.
