Maynard Leighton and Bob Barnes always insisted there were yellow
Stanleys,,,early on,,tiller steer,,like my old 1900 [ ? ] side bar,,
There is info PRINTED in july-Aug 1901 Lewiston Journal,,,
and I think the cars existed before the newsprint,,
The yellow identified the Stanley,,fastest thing around,,
bar none,,100 years later,,still is, amongst its contemporarys,,
Hats off to the men who have helped preserve the legend,,
Last year my blacck racer clocked 84 Hp at only 15 MPH !!
on Pete's chassis dyno just up the streeet from NHIS [speedway]
at Loudon NH,,
The body yellow was EARLY,,
Cheers,,Ben
