That's one pic of the Rolling Stone I've never seen - thanks.

This appears to be a "Down Under" photo especially with the RHD '46 more door (with separate turn signals) and what looks like Eucalyptus trees in the background.

 

Not the same "Rollin' Stone" roadster. Just sponsored by Rolling Stone automotive.

 

I know the title says photo's, but these need to be seen again ( hope it's OK. )

 

A couple more.

 

I think this one got crashed.

 

Photo taken at Mo-Kan. Jr Hurley in the white t-shirt. ( C&H Automotive dragster )

 

Yea, it did. I have a picture somewhere of the carnage, it was pretty bad.

 

That's the Burkholder Brother's coupe. Harry wadded it up good.

 

A few more.

 

That would be Ted "Curley" Cyr strapping on the helmet. Ted, and Bill Hopper were reasonably successful with that TE440 during the NHRA fuel ban.

 

Same car at Pomona, 1959. One of my Brownie Hawkeye shots.
