@Jive-Bomber Jay - That’s a gem of a video! . . . I had stumbled upon it on YouTube several years ago . . . had watched it in its entirey . . . then kinda forgot about it . . . Thanks for bringing it to our attention . . . I know what I’ll be doing on my lunch hour today . . . - @HEMI32
Guess I am sorta glad you forgot about it- I have to really work at finding 50s and 60s hot rod movie clips that haven't already been shared on here! =-)
I have been a member of the British Columbia Custom Car ***ociation for 65 years. We built a Drag Strip 60 years ago and are still operating it as Mission Raceway Park, in Mission, British Columbia.
Too cool! I own the chopped and channeled '32 five window that is in the video. Knew about the car since I was a teen and a few years ago I got it out of the widows ba*****t where it sat covered in blankets for decades. Hasnt been on the road since 1959. I have found out alot of history on the car and will do a story on here one day soon.
