Would you sell the Performance Specialty frame? My father in law used to go there all the time in the 70s. They were in Alhambra, CA

Raceland Lincoln, Sprint car track in the 60's, 70's in Lincoln, Ne. My Dad raced there many years and was featured in Hot Rod at that track. Speedy Bill Smith (Speedway Motors) home track, Great memories! Thanks for sharing!

I came across the holy grail of frames, at least in my opinion. Has anyone ever seen another one of these?

In '69/'70 I found my way to Blair's Speed Shop while on a weekend pass from Camp Pendleton visiting family.

Great find! My buddy has a mint Blair's frame on his 55 chevy gasser. He used to work at Performance Specialty on Valley Blvd in Alhambra, CA around 1972-1974 or so.
