This Beach Racer was built in Jacksonville, Florida by Bert Moyer. He utilized a 1928 Chevrolet engine, rear axle, front axle and brakes. The rest of the running gear is a 1926 Chevrolet. The body was so rusty it was duplicated in Jacksonville, FL by Jimmy Britts and painted by Steve Pisano.
The car raced in northern Florida and southern Georgia in the 1930’s. Bert raced in Atlanta against Ralph DePalma (1915 Indy 500 Winner) among other drivers.
The car was found in Mrs. Sally Moyer’s garage in Jacksonville in 2006. She is the daughter-in-law of Bert Moyer. The car was restored in Jacksonville by Randy Kimberly and was unveiled at the 2007 Amelia Island Concours.
