provided by Tom: Johnny Peepers Yerger who was a regular at Dorney Park from
the early 60's through the mid 70's. He also ran occasionally at Grandview, Evergreen, and
Mahoning Valley. My Dad was the mechanic for Johnny "Peepers" Yerger all
through the 60's and early 70's. This coupe had what my dad called a "diaper". Seems the old 312 Merc had an oil leak, so to prevent a black flag, he installed a piece of canvas under the motor to catch the oil. They ran the car like that the rest of the season. After that all the cars had them on. |
