Just found this cool old thread. Here's a shot of my green car with its old ramp truck from back in the 80's. Kym built it in the mid 70's and used it along with Randy for about 10 years. Trying to track it down now and see if I can find it, or something similar to it that I can use.

The one x Baldwin Motion posted of the black 69 on the white Chevy flat bed in the barn covered with dust is just awesome.
Here are a couple of pics of my father's racecar on his ramp truck circa 1968/1969. Probably headed to New England Dragway.

----I was up at Epping almost every weekend in the summer of 69 with my 396/350 Camaro. Seems like I remember that Nova. Also started back in the early 90's with Red Alert, mostly testing......Bill S

No kidding? I love it. My Dad and his business partner Dennis swapped the big Pontiac that was in for a 426 Hemi early on. My memories are all of the Hilborn fuel injection stacks sticking up out of the hood. It was a great jungle gym! I've spent a lot of time at NED since the 70s. Not as much as I'd like to have of course... My brother is still a Tech Inspector there. He lives about 10 min away in Brentwood.

Still trying to track it down and see where it went back in the 80's. Old owner is checking to see if he can find it.
