Cool photos. How about that deep sump pan on that Nova? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif Wouldn't want to lift the wheels off the line on that one. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

I gotta be honest and say that those are some of the best vintage drag racing photos that I've seen in a long time. I've grown very tired of seeing all the nationally-known cars back then and love to see photos like these of a typical weekend at the smaller strips with the local heroes battling it out back then. Every photo with an unknown car is a treat. Thank you very much for taking the time to post them. More please!

Makes me want to go watch Two Lane Black Top !

I agree...these are cool! I have "some" pics from OCIR..but they are from a later time... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

+++ FANTASTIC ++ PICTURES, IT'S GREAT TO SEE ALL THE OLE CARS THEN , I HOPE THERE WILL BE MORE.. THANKS AGAIN FOR SHARING THEM WITH US....KASEY https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Man Dog you are the man! All these cars with the tow tabs and wiring the exhaust pipes with a piece of tye wire out of the way when they got uncorked for the strip is really bringing back memories. Put these on a CD and I will buy one. I bet most here on this site will too. Thanks, Sam

Talk about the real meat and potatoes of the good ol' days!!!
Thanks Dog...keep 'em comin'!!!

These vintage photos show why so many of our generation are so crazy about the old musclecars. Either at our local track, and/or on the steeet, we were all doing it. As Archie Bunker would say, "man, those were the days". Thanks for sharing. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Wow...Thanks for the pics!

I really like the "Hard to Say" 68 RR...I have a set of the rear mags on that car.....Very Very Very tough to find.They were made by American Dragmaster,six slots and a very dished offset. This is the second pair I've ever seen... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Heres one other shot of the "Hard to Say" RR

Very nice Vern. The old John James 427/425 Bisquick at Maple Grove. A Bryner Chevrolet car.

Thanks Sam. I didn't know that. BTW, I'll be at Ronnie's tomorrow around noontime. I'd like to run up to Pete's and see the motor. Why not stop by?

Verne

Boy - those M/T valve covers sure were popular!!

Unbelievable collection. I love it!!
Couldn't make out the name on the red '62. Do you know any more about it?
Thanks. Verne https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Please tell me that you guys have thousands of these photographs! If not I better starting planning now for the withdrawals............These are great. More people need to start posting all their personal shots and start new threads titled with the dragstrip or cruise area. Neat stuff! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Verne

I can't think of the name - I believe it started with a B
I remember seeing the car on the street with just the name on the doors no other lettering or decals in mid/late sixties in Nassau / Franklin Square area

fricken Awsome!!!!!! I am going back to the top https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

<font color="blue"> https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ouguysrock.gif These are GREAT pics.
I just got back from the GatorNationals & this makes me happier. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

The first time I raced was at N.Y. National & it closed 2 weeks later
... I was devistated; until I went to Englishtown, then I was happy again.
Those tracks are where my first 2 trophys came from.

I also remember Flip's Speed Shop when I was growing up.

Thanks for the memories... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif[color]

This is great stuff. I hope to see more.

Loved your shots also - the good old days - 29 cent gas - someone else looking to race at almost every light - and more tracks open every weekend then you could go to!!
Maybe sYc should start a forum just for all these old shots so they just don't disappear with time among all the other posts. Either way keep 'em coming they are great!!
