    Rare shot with Tommy's car being towed by something besides a Buick station wagon, or Cadillac convert.

    Yes it did, he must have removed that beautiful tail, while hauling it. I will call him this weekend and ask. This shot was prior to it's first run in '63 Pre 1st Run Pomona 63.jpg

    This "full body" Fuller car was built around '69, it was parked in '70. We bought it in '86 and gave it a second life as a Nostalgia Dragster ( we added a blower) and had a ball ! 2012-09-14 163930.jpg

    The guy leaning over with his hands on the chassis (next to the guy with the cigarette) sure looks like my old buddy and tin bender, Wayne Ewing..
