And it wouldn't have surprised me if Foyt had input on the decision to put Donnie in the car. remember that Donnie allison drove one of Foyt's cars at Indy in both 1970 and '71, never finishing worse than sixth, and they shared the Wood Brothers' car in 1971, with each winning in it. Foyt won at Ontario and Atlanta, while Allison scored the first of four consecutive wins for the Wood Brothers in the spring race, the Winston 500, in 1971. [David Pearson scored the other three.]

A 175 thousand dollar car in 1975? how much would that be in today's money?
