Notes: One of the original 11 1964 A/FX factory Comets and the sole station wagon. James Pflueger owned a Honolulu Lincoln Mercury dealership and was also the owner of Hawaii Raceway Park. He apparently brought "Dyno" Don Nicholson's "Ugly Duckling" wagon over for the track's opening day ceremonies on the Fourth of July weekend-1964. It's been claimed this was a one-time deal, but how long it stayed in Hawaii is in question. While this photo shows it lettered, a National Dragster pic (7/10-64) from this early July race clearly depicts an unlettered car. We do know that Ed Schartman raced this same car (once more re-lettered) back on the mainland at the '64 Indy Nationals. Driver Earle "Safari" Char got his monicker from his involvement in the famous African "Safari" Comets durability run. Hawaii Raceway Park 7/05/64 - RT |
