[165th]

In 1975 or '76 Andy Steed sold Adrian to Woodrow Carson(WC) Asbill. WC enjoyed the car as you can tell by these pictures of Adrian in full Hot Rod dress, including the Cragars and traction bars. These circa '76 pictures were provided by WC's daughter Dori Asbill Pierce. In later years WC used Adrian to herd dairy cows back to the barn, often driving the car in the fields. WC was tragically killed in an truck accident in the early '80's. Two owners later and the car was off the road for good in '98 when the frame off restoration gone bad led to the purchase of her in 2006 by Steve Schappaugh.

Something interesting to note the license plate in the circa '76 photos is the same plate that was on the car in '98 when she was taken apart on the original frame off gone bad. The tag expiration date is '92, giving thought that she may not have seen the road much after '92.
