The kid hardly knew the wheels from the drums. But the idea fired Merle. Without the spirit to plan for himself, he easily hooked on to the plans Ricky made. Under Ricky's questioning, things came back to Merle that he thought he fcad forgotten years before. Items of knowledge aliout cars and motors.

Tricks for improving performance, old for power that he had learned drifting from shop to shop and then forgotten. To his own astonishment he be- jgan to read again. First one mag- iazine on cars that Ricky had been carrying. Then he'd ask to read entire collection. Ricky drove his coupe into the garage and got out "She runs like a top," he called to Merle.

"And a high- speed rear end? Once we start, we might as well go all the way." "We wffl, we will," Merle said petulantly.

"But I don't have everything we need to work with." "Well, the power end will be your department anyway," Ricky said. "I'm going to be the design boy.
