09/19/03 Terry Kelleher That photograph was taken in 1965.   Car owner, Matty Mc Mann had two Purple 1937 Ford Coaches available for Tommie to drive.  Incidentally, Mc Mann had a LONG LONG trailer he use to haul both of the Modifieds' upon.  Needless to say backing-up into his narrow driveway in Point Plasant, New Jersey was always  a challenge.  Ah, but Tommie was sooooooooooo smooth. He; Gill Hearn, Tony Siscone were just a pleasure to watch as they would so often out think the other drivers.
05/07/05 Doug B ANYBODY HAVE PICS OF TOMMIE IN THE EARLY 70s IN THE BLUE 2jr ? (WALL)
10/16/10 Ed Neville In his photo of Tommy, is that Pete Frazie behind him in the #68?

I though he 2 jr was driven by Bill McCarthy in the late 60's & Early 70's owned & sponsored by the owner of Pixie's Inn (John Catarinos?).  Later sold to Armand Perry of Colts Neck, NJ.

Prior to that Bill drover his own car, The blue Studebaker #7.
