Default Re: Vintage Drag Pics

----This 67 was ordered as a duplicate, exterior and interior colors (maroon/black), as well as W-30 option, to the Brainbough W-30 67 race car, but Im still a little unsure who the 1st owner was. It was apparently just driven (and I assume raced on occasion) on the street. I havent talked to Woody yet as Im buying the car thru a mutual friend, but will fill in the gaps as I go.
----The engine is apart and I couldnt pass up a chance to have another "Reids Automotive" done engine as every engine Jimmy ever built me performed better than expected. I cant pick the car up until Jimmy has finished the motor, so I actually havent seen anything but pics (a whole bunch of them) yet. I have a bunch of beautiful 67 442 stuff from a California delivered 67 that got badly damaged in a shop fire and am presently rehabbing a lot of it while waiting to pick the car up.....Bill S

----As an aside,,,Brainbeau closed its doors sometime around the end of 67 beginning of 68 (I think). Thats at least partially why we see the later race car being sponsored by Berejik!!!
