Headline: Al Unser Jump-Starts Museum Drive With Purchase Of Indy 500 Car

Message: Al Unser has found another prominent race car for his museum.

Now all he needs is the money to build the Children's Discovery Museum on a parcel of land from his Albuquerque, N.M., property he has donated for the project.

Four-time Indianapolis 500 winner Unser, the driving coach for the Indy Racing League® IndyCar® Series, was one of the few racers among 320 people who attended an auction Nov. 15 in Phoenix as Vince Granatelli, son of Speedway Hall of Famer Andy Granatelli, sold all of his racing equipment and his 38,500 square-foot shop and private jet. Vince retired as a car owner in CART after the 1991 season yet maintained his equipment in spotless condition for the past 12 years. Buy 2004 Indy 500 Tickets Online!
