The Last ORIGINAL 1994 Brickyard 400 Car Runs Again! Travis Bell's "Barn Find" is Going Home!
What happens here
After removing the window, inspect the frame for any signs of the original mounting. The owner points out rivet holes around the window frame, indicating how the window was secured. The original window broke during the 1994 Brickyard 400, leading to a scramble by the pit crew to replace it, using whatever fasteners were available at the time. This highlights the improvised nature of early race car repairs.
Goal: Examine the construction and repair methods of the race car's window frame.
