Ray never ran a bracket car. He quit I believe after the 55 Chevy days. I would say he would be about 68 or so today.

My pop corrected me, the guy I posted Ron Schoor had a Shell station at Fitzwatertown and Welsh Rd. Near the Dunkin Donuts that is there today. This is just up the road from Ron Ruth- known for his 62 "Get Around" 409- another fellow from the Vargo Days.

Strange how similar they names were in the same area and around the same time.

The "Get Around"

I remember Get-a-Round at Vargo. Shame Ronnie Ruth is not with us anymore. That car did a lot of hoping around with that suspension. Probably would have went faster if he controlled the rear hop some. Car did run well though.

I checked that car out at the Hatboro car show in july. He willed it to his Grandaughter who displayed it proudly. Great car.

I'll have to find some better pictures of my Mom's 1972 Vega GT, but if you look past all of us it's there.



We would climb all over everyting that was in the driveway and there was a lot of cars that passed through.

Here is the one of the early "Plowman" rigs circa maybe 1979. Funny how 15 years later guys I grew up wiht were telling me they always wanted a tuck like my dad's black 1977 Ford. This was before "Bigfoot" hit the scene.







I spy the Vega in the last one.

We've been trying to get together for a few months now, and this week was good for both Dave Moran &quot;67 Nova Boy&quot; and I to meet up with the Grump. Thought some of you might like to see that things are still going strong in Malvern.



It was pretty cool for Grump to come out in the cold- it was actually snowing- and talk to Dave about some upcomming motor work.



I also couldn't leave without revisiting an old conversation we've had on these old Tunnel Rams and some tricks- more to come later!



You can see a bit of the shop, but don't want to broadcast all the &quot;stuff&quot; on benches.
