History Early drag racing photos

Pomona in 1953. I may do a post with all of them in the come days.

 

Dale Hartung, from Ohio

 

Bob Haines

 

Bob Alsenz in Kenny Lindley's Misfire

 

Twisters of Vista, 324" Olds, Don Bennett drove

 

Bayer & Frietas, former Lefty Mudersbach car

 

Is that the one that was "waaay ahead of the Howard Cams Special..."?

 

What would we do with the faces to the cars - thanks !

 

Mudersbach was the chassis builder for the Money Olds, national champion in 19??, from Phoenix. And, I've heard, that it's the same chassis that was the Bayer & Freitas dualer.

But I do know, as we were running then, that one time they qualified for Middle Eliminator with their really terrible handling twin-engined car with Hayden Profitt driving. The next week, the rule was put into place that dual-engined cars had to run in Top.

 

Is that Scorpian II or III ?
