Default Re: Racecars shipped to Sweden back in the day.

Here it is with Don Schumachers name on it:


Don Schumacher and Paula Murphy was in England with their respective cars in 1973 for a matchrace. The Phelps bought both cars and Allan Herridge drove the Stardust and Paulas car was sold to someone I don't remember.

Here is a movieclip from 1973 when Schumacher is doing a long burnout.

Allan Herridge drove it for a while as one of the Phelps stable cars.

Later the Stones bought it and put in a Chevy in it since that was what they had experience with.

You can read more here.

BTW I met Paula in 1980 at the Winternationals, she was with the same company of people I hang out with there. She was a really nice woman and told me that the event in England was a very fond memory she had.
