Early Days of Hot Rodding and Racing in Santa Barbara and beyond.

[khyndart in CA]

Al Moss, the founder of Moss Motors and Ken Miles were good friends and fierce competitors on the tracks of Southern California.
I notice Ken must have liked to have a car numbered 50 throughout his career.
See in previous posts # 51 t0 58.

Here is a Kurtis 500 that raced at Torrey Pines.
Apparently $6000.00 in 1956 is worth about $ 30,000.00 today but then I was never any good with numbers or money !






A 1954 Kurtis 500S Roadster for sale in 2019 at Monterey.
