Wendy,

This was the Bob Herda car #999. Here is the info I gathered from my
programs...

#999 B/Streamliner built & owned by Bob Herda - Portola CA

1961 Herda & Hartelt - Class Record 248.281 MPH set by Fred Lavell 1957

1963 Herda & Cagle- Class Record 249.32 MPH Hammond-McGrath-Whipp 1962

1965 Herda, Knapp & Alderson - Class Record 302.812 MPH Hammon-
McGrath-Whipp 1963

1966 Herda, Knapp & Milodon (Don Alderson)

1967 Herda, Knapp & Milodon set record @ 326.853 MPH

Bob Herda died in the car at Speedweek 1969.

I have attached an article written by Bob Knapp about Bo Herda.
