Summary
| Description |
English: Soap Box Derby racer built and piloted by Cliff Hardesty of White Plains, New York who won the 1939 All-American World Championship in Akron. His impressive racer comprised a stout aerodynamic fuselage with high sides that completely enclosed the occupant, an acrylic windscreen and full-length headrest fairing. Windscreens were discontinued by the late 1940s by Derby officials for safety reasons, and headrest fairings were rare. The body, a narrow teardrop design, was made from wood slats and sheet metal. The axles were fitted with tapered wings. This illustration is sampled from a SketchUp digital 3D model, seen here. Both are created by Bill Wrigley, Toronto, Canada. |
