FB Header #18: Annabele-Nelson-Talbot at El Mirage (1949)

Seems the guys are more interested in the T-Pickup than the girls, go figure. The Annable-Nelson-Talbot Class B Lakester was entered at the May ’49 S.C.T.A. races at El Mirage and ran a 239” 1947 Ford for power. It was fitted with Meyer head and intake, Kenny Harmon cam and Pounden ignition and clicked the lights at 115.38 mph. Of the 38 entries in the class only nine cars were slower.
