History San Bernardino history!

. . Damn -- I lost the right side of this photo! It's of the San Berdoo Roadsters club that met at the Hudson dealer's garage on Base Line.

 

Way cool. Build it! Good on youuuuuuu!

Hello,

I could not help but feel I saw this Modified Sports Car somewhere back in time. So, in my search, I found this film I took in 1960 of a Modified Sports Car at Lion’s Dragstrip. It was one of the only Modified Sports Cars with a 671 supercharged motor at the time. At first, back in the VHS tape days, I thought it was my friends who built the Modified Sports Car. I had not seen them since 1960. So, comparing it to many photos, I found out it was not the same Modified Sports Car as the one I saw being built in the Westside of Long Beach. (frame and complete ch***is/motor only)

When they finally put the body on the finished ch***is, it took on a whole new look. I never saw the body when I visited their garage workspace. So, it was not the same Modified Sports Car from the film that I took. YRMV

But going over the sports car photo racing the rear engine roadster, that looks to be the same modified sports car from back in 1960, with a new paint job. It seems that everything else looks to be the same. Any idea who owned the sports car or information about the motor or driver?

 

Congrats! I like forward to seeing it at the GNRS.
