Chad Caldwell's New Auburn Racer
There are several cars that are being built for the 2014 Great Race that we have been telling you about, including Chad Caldwell's 1931 Auburn boattail speedster. You may recall that Chad found the boattail in Montana several months ago, and he has been busy back in Georgia getting it ready for the race. He has the body in primer and the chassis is complete. J.D. Scott at
is building a new set of wheels for the car as well.
You can see Chad and Jennie's longtime Great Race car "Awesome Auburn" in the background of the chassis photo. They finished fifth overall in 2013 in the Auburn race car, but Chad wanted a new challenge. In the coming days we will update you on a couple of rookie teams with exciting new cars, including one that was just displayed at the Chicago Autorama.
