Wrenching on a Top Fuel engine, Jim Nicoll and Stockers at night. Inaugural Summer Nationals 1970, York, PA.

 

I did not take this picture, but its BAD ASS. Thanks Coollows C.C.

 

My little one, Gianna, helping out in the shop right after coming home from the hospital after suffering a snakebite...was awesome having her there and healthy and in one piece...lotta prayers answered there

 

TMcCrea, you're one lucky dog! I much prefer the looks of Nikki over Linda. What ever became of her?

 

Some of my favorites.....

 

Where is the amusement park located?

 

A couple I have recently taken.

 

the amusement park is badass!

 

The amusement park is located (not to steal Edsels58's thunder) just SE of Cleveland Ohio.

Shut and largely abandoned in 1978. Most of the larger stuff was just left. Last time I visited there there was still most of a, shoot, I forget what it was called but it was the bug ride, where it looked like a bug. Super rare. There are only a couple in the United States.

Hopefully people will keep it a bit hush hush because I'd hate to see it get real popular which would only lead to major vandalism.

 

Man, you guys are posting some really cool stuff. The only thing I have is this pic of my fiance's '51 F1 as reflected in the chrome of my bike. I thought it was kinda cool...

 

A while back, the kids wanted to paint hot rod flames on the new mower.
spray cans and masking tape

 

A little OT, but I guess some of you guys will like the pictures anyway. The jet fighter is aboard USS Lexington in Corpus Christi a couple of years ago, the B17 is from Duxford this summer.

 

I have showed these before on another post. This was my dad's jflight jacket from World War II. He was a top turret gunner on a B-24. I always thought the Knight in Armor riding a bomb was very descriptive of how many of these young men must have felt.

 

This was taken this summer at Bob's classic auto north of Lapeer Mi.

 

couple more...

 

Winter distortion.

 

The place has security now because it was purchased and is slated for demo and "new development"
They recently filmed a movie there and that was how I got in. I was fortunate enough to get involved with the movies producer and supplied a car for the main character, then supplied a second matching car for an explosion scene... Pretty cool stuff. Cars are to new to post here tho

I'll try to post more pics of the park now

 

That winter distortion pic looks like a car from Roger Rabbit!!!!

More cool park pics.


Coaster platform

a Ride called the Bug

Two old park trucks abandoned in '78... Complete and running at that time I'd assume

Find the ferris wheel.

That sucks, that place was full of life at one time.
