S100294: Larry Palazzo

Back Home Up Next

A NASCAR racer?

Larry Palazzo purchased his '64 Rampside in December, 1997. It was previously owned by Ken Schrader (the NASCAR driver).

In November 2000, Larry moved the truck from his mother's home in Florida to Minnesota, his home at the time.

Larry had the following to say about his trip:

"It was stored inside for the last 1 1/2 years. I probably shouldn't have but being short on time I put a new battery in it pumped the gas 6 times and it fired right off. It ran good until some of that nasty gas got running though the carbs. I had to do them anyway. Now I have all winter.

I hope to do a safety and cosmetic restoration (Krylon Overhaul) over the winter to make it more eye appealing and safe to drive. I want to be able to enjoy it a while before it gets a complete restoration."
