Thanks Head NED for all your hard work and providing us with such a great show. Although we were late somehow we made it this year and will surely...
Couldn't have made it without the encouragement and parts from a great bunch of guys. You all know who you are.
The challenge has been made and we'll be ready.
The last year for the 235 engine was 1962.
That ain't all that the NHRA screwed up! :mad:
Don't know why I thought any one would notice especially someone I thought was my friend. Now lets see, where can I find a 42 year old picture of you?
The Valiant belongs to Ronnie Evans. Looks like the York staging lanes with me standing on the drivers side of Alan McMaster's '57.
You are correct. Won the 1968 Division 1 Stock Eliminator with that car and flat towed it to the world finals in Tulsa, Ok. Can you imagine anyone...
We sold the wagon after the third 1968 points meet at Cecil County to a guy from up state N.Y. near Niagra Falls. I think he was a drywall...
That's young Jere Stahl wearing the shades with his '56 wagon. All his early headers had the long collectors.
My first thought was that's a picture of "The Giant". Then I began trying to match the cars with this guy before I realized...... Guess that what...
I saw Doug on Sunday at a car show in Limerick, Pa. Somehow he found me after he saw my name on my '55 Chevy. He looks good but has had a...
"Meathead" and "JAG" are gonna be there.
On our wagon we ran 50 PSI in the front tires made by ABLE. Bought 'em at Lit Bros. department store in Phily. They were large diameter and very...
Tom Pauser's Vette was Lyndale blue a factory color. An awesome car that would just squat and go. One of my favorites. Ken
Wouldn't miss it! Been there every year to see all the other old guys. Lots of good memories from Vargo.
4 speeds were outlawed in 1970.
Just for the record. The "Jolly Green Giant" was a '57 4 dr. wagon owned by the Gunning Bros. (Jack & Ken). I drove the McMaster & Nelson red 4...
That final run may have had a different outcome if Wenzel didn't toss his fan belt and stop on the return road and put it back on. (Where's the...
Add Gerry Robinson (1957 Chevrolet) Div. 1 to the list. I saw him last night at a local cruise night.
Can anyone identify the '57 Chevy behind Woodys Olds in the top picture? It's the McMaster & Nelson M/Stocker that I had the privelege of driving...
I think I remember but I checked my old rule books to be sure. I stil have them from '62 to '75. In 1971 exhaust systems in stock eliminator were...
The first photo is Gerry Robinson, Dublin, Pa. See post #3237 for a closer picture. The year is '64 or '65 not sure without researching it.
I think the 1960 348 cu. in. G/S Chevy sedan delivery of John Novack is not on the jr stock list and should be added. It was a Div. 1 car that was...
Looks like all these shots were taken at Vargo Dragway in Perkasie, Pa. along with the previous shots of "Archie" and our wagon. I think the...
Ted did a nice article on our wagon that was published in the Dec. 1968 issue of Super Stock Magazine. It would be nice to see him again after...
I'll be there with wearing my "GREEN GIANT" T shirt. Ken
I just spent a few hours searching my old mags and National Dragsters and was unable to find a list of class winners and runner ups. I'm fairly...
Butch; I hope to be there. Ken
Butch; The Gypsy Wagon looks as good as the '57. Hope to see them both at York. FYI it looks like you have the front fender moldings on the wrong...
Separate names with a comma.
