Jack, Any luck getting in touch with Ed Burns?
The answer to this is not to kill anyone for stealing your property. Just make him wish he was dead.
Thanks for this information Doug. That record setting run by Mad Dog 1V in 1961 with Dodge power cost Osiecki much more than the $10,000 prize....
Congratulations with the swap. There is only one problem in the future I see. Your small capacity gas tank. Those Grand Sports engines love gasoline.
Happy 92nd Gene (June 16). You are living proof painting cars is good for your health.
As I noted earlier the first season of 77 Sunset Strip is being aired on MeTV and I am recording the episodes. I will keep each episode the Kookie...
I have been wondering if anyone has tried to get 85 year old Ed Byrnes to Pebble Beach. That would be the icing on the cake!
This car was touched by so many legends from the past it is mind blowing. I had forgot Dean Jefferies was involved. I can't imagine any car at...
I continue to be amazed at the incredible workmanship of today's modelers. The time spent sometimes equals the real deal. I have never been into...
I got in touch with Fred through Humpy Wheeler who had tried unsuccessfully to get him to a race at CMS for years. When I got in touch with Fred I...
It was 30 years ago today I organized the Holman & Moody Reunion during Charlotte Motor Speedway World 600 Speedweeks . It was at the former...
I It was a 390 Police Interceptor Special. They were rated at 330 horsepower and had solid lifters. It was a popular option.
All I see is an error message. Was that the T-Bolt?
Your Mason jars guaranteed some quality evening bench racing. Hubert Platt always had some homebrew on hand and it "relaxed" those who sipped as...
You did a very good job of organizing this event Brian. I think you accomplished everything you hoped for. The pits looked like it was the 1960s...
MeTV has chronologically returned to 77 Sunset Strip, Season 1 (1958) when this iconic car first appeared in our homes and turned many of us...
When I was young and stiff from overdoing something I would frequently hear "you look like an old man". Today, when I am stiff from overdoing...
One other thing. That was a sexy logo, especially for that era. It made my juices flow every time I saw it looking at that white patch next to the...
I too had always called them Giovanni cams because that was always the way I heard it pronounced. This was in the late '50s, early 60's. They were...
I'm sure you've checked the choke fast idle.
Until today there were were two Woodstock 50s, one at the original site, the other at Watkins Glen Raceway promoted by original Woodstock...
I will be three quarters of a century old June 5th and am blessed to be able to do what I need to do just as I always have. I still cut my lawn...
Thanks nobby. Short but nice video of probably the most important Ford ever built with rare footage of Henry and Edsel together as the different...
BTTT. New members may learn about one of the greatest pioneer hot rodders you never heard of and hopefully new information will surface about Bob...
The close-up of Potter traveling sides ways (we call it drifting today) is a perfect indication of how comfortable he was on it after many years...
Potter did travel to the UK with his bike but I don't believe that's it. I talked to Clyde Hensley recently to see if he has sold either of E.J.'s...
It's ironic but the Ross gang were at the Congregation Show in Charlotte last weekend with some of their traditional vintage engine powered rods....
The black '40 Ford Coupe was a real sleeper. Had the hood closed most of the day with no information sheet. Later I walked by again and the hood...
This show should grow. It is different, has plenty of unused space and admission is reasonable. The weather is only a factor getting there. You...
Thanks for reminding me. I will be there. I have lived in and around Charlotte all my 74 years and that building is holy grail to antique car...
Separate names with a comma.
