Some Cool Street Machine Nationals Video-Duquoin..

[ORIGLS6]

Can't say about ALL of them but Rick Northrop is building and racing Outlaw Sprint cars. Their shop is about three blocks from where I work. Rich Gebhardt is still building cars, but almost exclusively race cars now. Scott Sullivan is still around and active. Just read something about him in the past few months. Haven't heard anything about Dobbertin or Matt Hay in a long time.
The chassis on Dobbertin's Pontiac J-car was a masterpiece!

Awesome stuff! I never missed a SMN from 1977 on up to, I think 90-91. I saw my '69 B5 blue 440 GTX in the background. This was the annual "gotta be there" event. Duquoin, Indy, St. Louis...

Some great memories there but I was wondering...where's all the hot chicks? lol

Thanks for posting, Bruce.

Wouldn't it be cool to have a couple of the *STAR CARS* of the pro street movement at MCACN...if they are still around? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

I had a shirt like that....ordered it from a car magazine in the early 80's. I don't think my mom was too happy about it.

I had a t-shirt with a picture of little Beaver Cleaver in his Sunday best and his hair greased down for church. It said, &quot;I (red heart) Beaver!&quot; The girls I worked with at the hardware store loved it.

I did as well...except mine had &quot;Injection is nice&quot; (and the BDS logo) on the front by the pocket....and &quot;I'd Rather be Blown&quot;...on the back of the shirt. I used to get snide comments usually from oldr ladies and I'd then show them the front of the shirt and ask them where their mind was at [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]....

LOL

The front of my shirt looked like this. The worst part about it....I probably didn't even know what it REALLY meant. I was in my teens! &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;stupid

I NEVER see these tubbed poseur cars at ANY shows anymore. What happened to them all? Did they get updated? Restored? I know they have to be tucked away in someones garage!
