During the winter of 1963-4, Ed built two cars for Ed Ackerman of New York. Ackerman numbered them #1 and #2. The Ackerman #2 was often driven by Sal Mauro, but Ed drove it to victory in the Southside 400 on September 4th, 1964.

The #1 was built by Ed for Ed Ackerman. It was first driven by Gene Gamache, shown here. After Gene was killed, the car was renumbered #3 and usually raced by Rene Charland. Ed drove the car as #3. I don’t know whether he ever drove it as #1.
