Extended "old days" stories from Herb due to one of the SS/AH dumping 1319.5 feet of ATF on the track.
Great stories, thanks Herb.
Bobby, you must get Herb on "Story Tellers" (if you havent already )
 
I have ordered parts from Herb before and he will tell you great story's on the phone. I was amazed he answered the phone in the first place.
 
I was a neighbor of Mr. 4 Speed in Memphis when I was in high school. He allowed me and a friend to tag along to Indy. I'll never forget that experience! Hell of a mechanic and driver.
 
We used to buy all of our parts from Herb. Many times he would answer the phone,and you always got a story (which is a good thing) Herb also would be honest and tell you what would work and what wouldn't,always very helpful.Herb needs to have a Legends series on him.
 
I don't think Herb is 89. That would have made him about 36 when we went to Indy. Remember he was a printing press operator - interesting coincidence as I later owned a print shop for 25 years.
 
Herb must be about 74 like was posted above. When I saw him in the old days he was my age. And I'm almost 74.
