Reminds me of an early racer driven by a future NASCAR driver... *PIC*

Mark Martin's first racecar, which he raced on the short tracks of Arkansas in his youth. I've seen other photos of the car in a book on him, published more than 25 years ago. At one point, the car had a full hood, and the driving position was modified to put his driver's seat OVER the transmission hump, the theory being that it was the safest place for the driver, in terms of side impacts.

The "Bushes Bros." team callout was something Mark came up with, in tribute to the Wood Brothers.
