Hello,

Good old/young Don Prudhomme in one of the all time top FED race cars. The Greer, Black, Prudhomme yellow FED. But, prior to the famous yellow FED, there was the red one...
1962
“With a combination of the money from Tommy Greer, the engine and clutch science of Keith Black and the raw driving skills of a young car painter by the name of Don Prudhomme, the GB&P car literally struck fear in the hearts of its competitors…”

We saw the results in the Drag News locally and were impressed that Prudhomme finally got a top race car put together for those hectic So Cal dragstrips encounters.

Tommy Greer - Don Prudhomme - Keith Black
As far as anyone knows, this is the very first shot taken of the new car/team that took drag racing by storm starting in 1962.

Buhagiar and Azzopardi roadster, was Top Hot Rod at the Sydney Hot Rod Show in 1966. Built from a sport coupe and word is it still exists somewhere in South Australia.

 

Too bad.

 

Absolutely. Like the saying goes, "just because you can, doesn't mean you should".
