RICK YOUNG Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Hey if anyone watched Pickers last Wednesday Night. They were within 30 miles of Jewell, Iowa.Happened to know both guests I have bought parts from the Doug the 80 year old guy.Marty's family grew up right next us 8 miles away.Both Marty and his dad ruled the Hamilton County Speedway back in the day.All are for sure characters just right for reality TV.If you saw the picture of a NASCAR car flying in the air that was our own Bobby Hill who drove one year in the Busch series and several years in ARCA.Connie Clement of well known Clement Trailer liked Bobby and hooked him up a ride for several years. Last I knew Bobby was a shop foreman for Mark Martin not sure which shop he's at now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZRIV Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Yep seen it. Doug was a tough negotiator. Mike and Frank didn't get any "deals" off him. Believe they said he was 88. Still climbing around cars through the junk, kick started a motorcycle and took off on it. Hope I can do that at 88. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
