Features 60's Style HotRods, Street, Race, Custom - Come On, Post pictures of what you like !

This is a picture of our 36 Ford Gasser drag car that appeared in our local newspaper taken at the Westhampton, NY drag strip in the mid sixties. It was originally flathead powered and later swapped for a 327 SBC. We built it in my Grandpa's garage with lots of junkyard parts. I'll never forget Grandpa saying you kids are "crazy spending hundreds of dollars to win a 59 cent trophy" ( today it would be thousands not hundreds). At least we were there and had fun doing it.

Early 60's styling is my favorite since that is when I came of age. I was mainly influenced by the customs in Southern California, mild customs that were daily drivers. Here are a couple of pictures of what I drove back then..

 

Some of my favorites...
