    Fantastic pics, thanks! Some of those push trucks are pretty cool too.
    Wish we still had that pristine salt surface to race on...

    Those are some great photos. Lots of details to study and ponder on. If time travel was possible, I know right where I’d want to go. Mid 50’s and be about 18 yrs old. Lol

    I am always amazed at the workmanship on these old cars at a time when information on how to do these things was very hard to come by I would assume.
