Charlie Edwin Hiner

Charlie Hiner of Wichita, Kansas with the Ford Flathead V8 rail he raced at Oakley, Kansas in 1962 for car owner Pius Selenke who was also from Wichita.  Other appearances for Hiner in this car were in the National Jalopy Championship at the Kansas State Fairgrounds in Hutchinson, Kansas (where the car was renumbered “6” for the day) and at ‘81’ Speedway at Wichita, Kansas where this photo was taken – Charlie Hiner collection

 

This is the first rail that Charlie Hiner drove for Pius Selenke at Oakley, Kansas in 1960 although the car was renumbered “43” before they raced it at Oakley.  This photo was taken at ‘81” Speedway after a minor accident – Charlie Hiner collection
