    Haven't been there since '66...thanks a million for the trip back!
     
  2. Thanks, Doug. When I went in 94, there was a fraction of the T/F cars. I agree with the statement about the quality of the restoration work.

    Thanks Doug, sorry that I still have not had the chance to meet you. I was busy with the race car this year and did not get to take any pix for the first time ever so yours shots are welcome. If you are at the March Meet next year stop by our pit and say g'day--AA/FD 890.

    Some of the best photography I've seen yet.
    Cool that you picked up on the push cars too!

    Trick too having caught a little of everything as there's always more to a show than just the cars. The people and other effects make the photo tour complete.

    Thanks for toughing out the pain to get so much out to share...........
     
  18. awesome pics! did anyone get any pics of me pushing off the Jerry Ruth dragster? (black ranchero with flames)

    Hey Thanks Mazooma for posting the photos of myself and Blackie on our way to the track. The roadster is a kick in the pants to drive. We ventured down from Portland for the Reunion. Just a little 1700 mile drive to see great nostalgia drags.

    Great pics, hell ya even got my sorry *** car in one... Thanks, workin and didn't get to walk around to see all that stuff. Thanks for all the time you spend doing this.
     
  24. Thanks for taking the time to share your photos
     
  25. Thank you for posting so many pics and starting this thread. The Reunion is my favorite event of the year and could not make it this year. Have only missed 3 of them now over the years.
    I especially liked seeing the pics of the ***ault dragster with the body off. Being a Pontiac fan, I do not get to see many pics of that engine.
    Also noted the red nitro Firebird funny car with the 392 based hemi. That may be the only car in the cl*** using one.
    Hope to have my AA/FD Pontiac back in a few years to run as finances allow.

    Steve

    Talked to the builder/owner of that coupe. At first glance it looked like an original but he hand built the top from parts. Beautiful work !!
     
  28. Thanks guys! I love this car, wanted to get down there to meet/see in person but just couldn't make it. :rolleyes: Love a MEL powered dragster, I will be at Famoso this weekend with Y powered one.
