One of my favorite cars on Long Island was the 1908 Simplex Speedcar restored and owned by Walter McCarthy.

Several owners and restorations later, the car was sold last Summer, and was documented on Wayne Carini's "Chasing Classic Cars on the Velocity Channel.

Some highlights are posted on VanderbiltCupRaces.com.
