History Drag cars in motion.......picture thread.

This A/G Willys is all I have loaded of John's pictures for now. I've got another dozen or so of his pictures to scan and load, then I'll get back to my own stuff. It may take a bit to sort through what's been posted and what hasn't.

Thanks to Ryan for making it easier to upload. Take care until next time.

With the tail that Hanna originally built for the Creitz "blue" car.

 

thanks - Partsrivet - for posting !

 

I'm betting that's the "Souza Brothers & Dad" 33.

 

This would be the Galli brothers from Concord, Ca. A/FA.

 

Gotta love the Fredricks of Hollywood sponcership for "Cha Cha"...............

 

Yes, John did mention the Souza Brothers were in in, so you are probably right on.

 

Here are some more pictures by John House. This is another of the Souza Brothers from Fremont in 1964.

 

No ID on this dragster from Fremont, Oct 1964

 

No ID on this B/Gas car. Fremont 1964. I love the continental kit on the rear.

 

The next batch of John pictures are from Half Moon Bay in Sept of 1964. Some are obvious, some unknown.

 

No info on this dragster. Is this an AA/FD by chance? Half Moon Bay Sept 1964

 

That continental kit probably had extra weight in it for traction

 

Here's an oldie for you flathead fans. Half Moon Bay Sept 1964

 

J & J Mufflers altered, Half Moon Bay, CA Sept 1964

 

No ID on this comp car at Half Moon Bay, Sept 1964

 

Here's a view of Gas Ronda's Thunderbolt. This must have been just after the Nationals in Indy and just before he got his A/FX Mustang.

 

Another view of Ronda's T Bolt. John indicated that was Gas in the tan pants working on the car. These were some cool cars.

 

The Bailey Brothers B/C at Half Moon Bay in 1964.

 

John says gassers and altereds were always his favorites. He indicates he has some Ektachromes that are color shifiting that we might be able to bring back to life. If so, I'll try to get them posted here. Here's another view of Davis and Ingram to close out this round.
