    I think that belonged to my old pal Frank. I will have to look at his scrap book again and see. I know he's in the movie with his car. He doesnt like to talk about it though. He's almost 80 and the internet freaks him out, lol. The guy who put the video together has been lookin for him for years. Frank wont talk to him. I have a copy of this on DVD
     
  2. Ed Gustky, wow, haven't heard that name in 30 years. Sorry to hear we passed, nice guy. He used to hang with us when I was running a '69 Camaro, racing on Telegraph. Ed had a early Camaro too, fast but not show piece. I never raced on Eckles, but watched it on nearby Haggerty (by the collage).

    I was there that day. The car I remembered was a 36 Ford coupe owned by Shinuto and Powers. It was powered by an Aurdun flat head, It seems that Bill Wadell from Flint was also there with his dragster. I have some pics of Tommy Foster and Macks car at a car show we went to in Detroit.
