    What's the story on the twin Chrysler rail ? Is that a old car re-done, or a new car ?

    repop made off an original (I believe all the original hardware is on the new pipe). the original was joe gerdelmans twin engine TE-440 rail. was found in a garage near sellersville with one blown 392 hemi on it by barry werner back around 1992-93 era. gerdelman confirmed the rail. barry later sold it to someone else who decided not to use the old pipe and re-create it with new pipe.

    The Vargo Reunion puts the PID Reunion to shame. Sure wish it wasn't so far to go (from western PA) I'd be there in a second!!!

    Well i have been going to vargo reunion for about eight years. This year i showed up around 9:30 and the road in was backed up for a long wait to get in. When i did get in i was parked in the field for the second year while brand new cars were parked on the track. There are other events the same day that i will go to next year. I am very sad to see what the vargo reunion has turned into. Just another car show. Just my 2 cents.
     
  12. A gathering of geezers, former racers , staff etc. Thanks to Joe McNally and staff for a great day, my first there since 1963.

    I saw new challengers, camaros, vettes, mustangs.
    the gran national was nice, but really? Time to ins***ute a year limit. Cool stuff was being turned away at the gate, too bad.

    Really felt bad for the kid they put out in the road to wave people on. I thought someone was going to clock him one. Got a little tense.

    All that, but it's still one of the cooler car things around, (and not jus tthe weather) and definitely the best in November.
     
  16. Always a tuff call to turn people away. Looks like I screwed up the Surfin' Sedan pics will try again later in the week.

    Perfectly restored '65 (local) fuel car and it's stuck on a trailer so they could have more room for the 2008 Z06 corvette,the 86 IROC and the nostalgic 220" rear engine super comp dragster:rolleyes:
