Re: OLD RACERS
[b] They did a 6 point bar and a lot of chassis and rear end work and much more on my Camaro.
They know all the performance and handling tricks. Besides Charlie & Freddie being great guys and a class act it was always a pleasure just to hang at their shop and see all the work in progress. They build everything, Dragsters, Pro Stocks, Pro Streets - They were building a Cobra Daytona Coupe from scratch to run at Bonneville the last time I was there. - -

Re: OLD RACERS
The wheels and tires did it for me. Old five-spokes with belted tires just looks so good. That thing was peobably a hoot to drive too.

Re: OLD RACERS
When we ran our 1/8 mile AHRA strip back in the 60s & 70s we would get fliers like these from the booking agents. I mentioned the old Farkonis, Coil & Minick car to Kwhizz last weekend and it reminded me of a few of these that were still on the wall in my garage. I carefully peeled a couple off a couple of nights ago. I'll try to get a few more if anyone's interested.
Midwest Super Stock circuit we used to see a few times a year. Any of you midwest guys remember 'Easy Ed' Rachanski? And Melvin Yow in Billy 'The Kid' Stepp's Dodge Demon.
