We Need Your Help: Do You Know The Whereabouts Of Army Armstrong’s L/Gas Karmann Ghia?

Readers, when we ask you for information, you’ve come through like we wouldn’t have expected. Everything from information on the most random race cars that ever existed to information on a topic that between the three of us, we didn’t know. We appreciate that about you, and today we need to tap into that reserve of information once again, this time for a special cause. Army Armstrong, the voice of monster truck racing, announcer extraordinaire, Hall of Famer, and racer, is on the hunt for one of his old race cars. It’s an L/Gas Volkswagen Karmann Ghia known by Armstrong’s trademark, “Makin’ Bacon”. It won it’s class at the SPORTSnationals in Bowling Green, Kentucky in 1974, and has been rumored to have been around the DFW area of Texas and Atlanta, Georgia. While it’s been many a year since and we know the kind of lives that race cars lead, we’d like to be able to help out where we can, so if you know anything about what happened to this little VW or where the car ended up, please step up and help out a guy whose contributions to the world of motorsports inspired us all.
