Anybody else remember Honest Charley's out of Chattanooga? My brother used to get their catalog back in the early 60's. I recall that one of the items listed was a McGurk 5-ace intake for a GMC six.

Coker Tire bought the rights to the Honest Charley name some years ago and revived the speed shop in Chattanooga.

If you have some time, there's an interesting audio interview with one of the original Honest Charley employees here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/?p=28456
