    She is a beauty, it looks way meaner than a stock one.

    Dave Snyder, old friend from the Portland area, I've not seen him in years, If I remember right Dave borrowed this T-bird roller from Leo Goroski (Master Transmission), pretty sure Leo ran it as the "Hemi Bird", again, not sure but I think Dave had this car on its top at Woodburn.

    Odd to see T-70R Americans on a drag car.

    Black Bird '57 was built and owned by Carl Tjorhom, British Columbia Canada and photo is likely at early Mission Raceway, Mission BC Canada. Car was later owned and raced by Dwain Kremyr of Surrey BC. Both are in the BC motorsports hall of fame. Black bird.jpg
