The Bear was built by Ray Moyer and was sponsored by The Bear Alignment Company.
Walter Wentz originally drove the car in the 1936 racing season for six wins and nine second place finishes until a late August wreck forced him to retire. Bill Gable drove the Bear Special in the 1937 season scoring five wins and eleven second place finishes.
The car was restored in 2013 by D.L. George Historic Motorcars and returned to competition at the 2014 editions of the Hershey Hill Climb and the Savannah Speed Classic.
You may purchase a print in our Savannah Speed Classic 2014 online gallery.
