Progress on the Type 97 Japanese Tankette
Sometimes, it's those little things that play a major role in restoration projects. Steve Foss and Keith Dekker are shown preparing the Japanese Tankette to accept castor wheels in order to be more easily rolled around this 5.2 ton tankette by any individuals aiding in the restoration. Done like experts! Awesome!
New From The Woodland Auto Display
A lot has been happening with the auto research library in the Woodland Auto Display. Since starting the project, we have received books from numerous individuals as well as from several museums that were closing. (A big thank you to Dave Wolin for his efforts.) With these numerous donations, the direction of the library has morphed a bit so it became a matter of somewhat regrouping and starting over. In other words, it is one of those projects where you have to take a big step backward in hopes of going two steps forward when finished.
Regarding the book portion, we now have over 1,000 books on hand that are organized in the following categories; American Automobile History, Foreign Automobile History, Special Interest, Motorcycles, Biographies, NASCAR, Indianapolis, Formula 1 & Sports Cars, Short Track Open Wheel Racing, Drag Racing, Hot Rod & Show Cars, and Race Tracks-Racing Circuits. A rough estimate is that it is split approximately 50% automobile racing related and 50% history and various other categories.
We now have to start organizing our large magazine collection. For instance, we have large inventory of Autoweek as well as National Speed Sport News. (NSSN was the racer's weekly go to newspaper prior to the internet, cell phones, etc..) We have complete collections of Circle Track, Open Wheel, Sprint Car and Midget magazines and much more.
With luck, and a lot of hours, the magazine portion should be nearing completion by the end of September.
