09/30/04 JIM JR My dad (Jim Hendrickson) never drove this #x3.    AL De ANGELO OR JOHNNY ROCCO DID.   THIS WAS BEFORE MY DAD DROVE FOR TONY.
05/25/05 Kevin Eyres Tony Ferrante Sr. owned this car driven by Al DeAngelo & Johnny Rocco. In 1959 Tony was seriously hurt at Old Bridge when a car crashed into the wall sending parts of the wood fence into the pit area breaking Tony's leg and hip. Tony was in a body cast for a year. He had just married with a new family (Tony Ferrante Jr.) when this occurred. You can still notice a bit of a limp fom this accident. I am very fortunate to be Tony Jr's. spotter on the Modified Tour where it is so nice to deal with this first class family.

Roy Rocco

It wasn’t my Dad –Johnny Rocco. He drove for Tony in 1960-61? After being starter at Islip and being hit by a hobby stock.  In 1958 He drove the Zero with flames. He has a trophy with Five track championships on it for 58 including Islip.
