BUILDING THE #55 SPRINT CAR FOR 2004


BEFORE: The car in 2003


The bare chassis in February 2004, in the garage.
At the end of every race season, the car must be disassembled completely.
Each and every part is either replaced, rebuilt, cleaned, and/or painted.



Jeff working on the new engine, hour after hour.

Isn't it a beauty?

Piece by piece, the car is repainted a new electric blue colour.

March 13, 2004 - making progress!
And check out the new $2000 shocks!


What a great new bumper sticker!
Jack FM is the new major sponsor for 2004.



A great new look for the new season!


A new (used) wing was added. The wings don't last more than a season or two, due to the tremendous force put on them during high speeds. It needs to be repainted now too!


Jeff, painting the wing - March 2004.


All ready for sponsor lettering! The race at Monroe WA was the first of the season (end of March), and the car was out on the track just as is!

FINALLY FINISHED:


May 2004, at Western Speedway. The "Speedy Jack" sprint car. What a transformation!
