You should be able to scan just the image and not the whole page...it's a pain with some scanners though.

My wife scanned the first one and it worked, I did the rest, that's why the whole page is coming through. I don't have a clue .... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Steven, your first camaro looks a whole lot like my first camaro! Too bad mine wasn't an L78... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

That Telephone pole w/anchor support behind the Draggin Deuce is literally the only identifying landmark still there.
Otherwise you'd barely know it was the same place today.
It's a Tree Nursery,so Trees are everywhere.

Bill P. CALL THAT CABLE STATION!

Isn't the AHRA stamp still on the ground? I recall seeing your pictures of that.

No,thats at US30 in Indiana.
Oswego only has slight areas of Yellow boundary lines that outlined the lanes back then.Barely visible.

I have no clue how to call the station...don't even know what station it is. The guy who tipped me off to the program initially is getting me a copy of the show. Don't know (and really don't care!) if it will be on VHS or DVD, but don't worry, I will keep everyone posted here. On the show, they alluded that there may be a 'Part 2' coming. I hope it has some later footage from the 60's or 70's.
