Brings back TONS of memories! Great to see these old warriors still around; both the cars and the drivers.

Man-O-Man John, great pictures! I remember most all those cars from the mid 60's. The West Coast was definetly a fueler frenzy in those days. I bet that was realy a lot of fun! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif
