History Stock-S/S-F/X 1959-1966

Looks to me to be Seaton's Shaker. In the magazine cover photo you can see the top line of the "E", kinda blurred in the trophy photo, JMO, Rod.

 

Pocono Drag Lodge and I was there that day.

 

Good for you.
Great memories for you.


Story is at post 210 on thread'Eastern Drag News".
Some race results are there also.

 

No, it wasn't the Seaton car. Both Seaton's car and Fulp's Slaton Chevrolet car were at the 1965 S/S Nationals Aug. 1965. Both are pictured in the SS&DI issue that covered the meet. I attended the meet but only saw Seaton's car by the time that I arrived.

I remember Joe.Him and his buddy,used to hang out at Monroeville Eat&Park.He was so easy going.We wondered if he could drive that "62".After watching him make a pass at Quacker City,there was no question that he could.

 

Just got this last night at walmart, they have some cool new ones out.

 

Not a S/S-F/X meet but if you want to attend a great hot rod, surf/rockabilly music, '50's-'60's party and you're anywhere near the northern NJ area head on over to the Dead Man's Curve Spring Filing May 15th. It isn't the usual calm sit and watch cruise event. I just completed the event shirt art and hope to be there.

Originally Red Z-11 bought from Woodward and Austin Chev., Brian Bachelder from So. Portland, Me. Ran it in '63, went into the Air Force, drove it to Colorado, sold the engine and put a small block in. When it came into the dealer the feders and hood were dented so Chev. provided replacements that Brian sold to a guy in R.I.

 

Any information on this '60 Ford and who it was?
Joel

 

A trailer and rollbar. That was bigtime in 1960!!

 

They sure don't make commercials like this anymore...

Hello..new to the forum as of today. I am looking for anyone who may have the race history or race photos of the Harold Ramsey-driven Union Park Pontiac '63 swiss cheese Catalina...I noticed it was mentioned early on in this thread..anybody have anything?

 

The car went to Larry Johnson and was run on occasion by Arnie Bewick. Later it was painted white and the rear axle was moved forward to become "Funny Tiger", still run by Larry Johnson. Bill Blair in NC had the car in that state up until a handfull of years ago and then sold it.
The Altered Wheelbase thread on HAMB has some pictures. I have one or two from when I visited Bill Blair when he owned the car.

I'm looking for information on a few of Mopars for the current owner ... The Twighlight Zone silver '65 A990 car and the "Original Gambling Man" AWB car, which I believe was originally a '63 Dodge out of Mr. Norm's dealership called "Pulsation".

Another is the "White Tornado" '64 Plymouth, Jim Neely and John Buehl. This car may be the Twighlight Zone car with a '65 nose.

I ran across the cars while vacationing in Idaho just recently.

Guffey, could you PLEASE send me pictures of this Cyclopes? Mr. Marion is a friend of mine and I was trying to find as many photos of him and his cars or previously owned cars over the years!!!!! He has told me numerous stories of the Cyclopes. Also anyone that might have race photos or articles of him, I would be really grateful to ya'll? He is still kicking and I see him at least once a week if not more. Thanks, zrxlover.

 

Yes, I think we have a winner!!!!!

 

MAN this is a GREAT thread!!!!!! My Tattoo is starting to grow,LOL. Hey if anyone of you have any pictures of Mr. Marion Fairchild or his cars or anything on him PLEASE send them to me, PLEASE?

I am trying to gather old photos of him and the people he use to race with to give him, thanks zrxlover.

 

OS/S jenkins/strickler '61 biscayne...



car has been recreated, to be unveiled in york, july 9-10 weekend.

 

I'm looking for any information on a '63 Dodge called "PULSATION" and the fellows in the attached photo. I believe the car was run out of Mr. Norm's dealership or at least had nominal sponsorship from Mr. Norm.

Hey Mercury Junky!!

The Merc to Tom Sturm's left in that photo is one I street drove for Al Edwards Lincoln-Mercury in 1963. The photo was taken at Dragway 42, West Salem,OH, in August during the Drag News Invitationals.
