I assume that means a Kurtis Kraft sprint car is correct and you are asking for the name of this particular car.   

In which case, is it the Sugarripe Prune Special?

Date: 1951 ?

No, it's not that and it's not actually a Kurtis Kraft either.
I only said that we were making progress, not that we are there yet!

If not a Kurtis or a Watson, was it another proprietary chassis or was it a one-off?
