<DIV>Perhaps reach out to the SCCA Steel Cities Region who know Bill well and
must have some historical notes about him as well as D M Mims. I believe Bill
was honored and there was a nice article written about him by Steel Cities
within the past few years.</DIV>
<DIV>It wasn’t to long ago that Mims worked the grid at Pitt Race aka known as
Beaver Run complete with pink gloves as I recall.</DIV>

data-mce-style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Tim, I thought Donna
Mae's car was found and restored a few years back. The car and Donna Mae herself
were at the SVRA race at Mid Ohio a few years ago. I thought you were there too.
Donna Mae was a hoot.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: arial" size="2" face="Arial"
data-mce-style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Did she drive more than
one?</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: arial" size="2" face="Arial"
data-mce-style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Good question about
restorations too. It's sure to bring up a lot of discussion.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>And on another note, two more TR3s have just come into my
life. Bill Emery has passed his late father’s two cars on to me, thinking I
might be a good caretaker for them.
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>After talking to Bill and Bob Tullius, and reading through his dad’s
correspondence I am convinced one of the cars, (the very rough yellow one) is
the Group 44 car that Bob Tullius built for Donna Mae Mims to race in the
1965. I have also found the original red paint and pink paint on the
car.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So this brings up some interesting ethical and technical conversations…
(also lots to write about in Classic Motorsports). Can this car be saved?
Should it be saved? If you re-body some, or all of it, have you really saved
it? While I know, from correspondence that some of the Group 44 parts are on
the red car, much of the Group 44 stuff is long gone. <BR>
