Description |
Color photo of the "Phoenix" owned by R. B. Slagle and Carl Heaps. The racing truck is a 1943 K-7 International modified for racing and land speed record attempts. Difficult to see details of the truck because of the distance from the photographer. A pickup truck is behind the "Phoenix". Two unidentified people are also in the photo taken at the Bonneville Racetrack on the salt flats of Utah in 1996. |
