Re: ray skillman classic cars

As far as I know, there are no syty's in there. You'd think that since I used to work right down the street, I would have been in there before, but I haven't. My dad has been in there, he would have told me if he saw one. He's got one hell of a collection of old muscle cars though. What are you in town for? And for how long? There is another muscle car museum on the north side of Indy called the RPM collection. Might want to hit it up on your way back to Michigan. If my wife didn't make some shitty plans for us already for tomorrow night, I'd go to Skillman's with you, but I'm stuck going to something at the Indianapolis Art Museum. I have no clue what it is, all I know is I'm going.

Well shit. I work until 1 on Saturday, then gots to change out the torque converter in the dragster. Sunday, having a get together at my uncles. Friend of my dads used to race the top fuel bikes back in the 90s. Was national champ in '96. Name is Roger Crawford. He lives about a mile from ORP, and he'll probably be there if his girlfriend lets him out of the house.

Yeah, it was a top fuel harley. He quit racing because too many of his friends were getting killed. The stories he has, oh my. Pro Stock bike racer Wesley Wells works at the Skillman museum as well, so you'll probably run into him as well.
