mother load of ROAD ROCKETs history found

a few weeks ago wellington had class reunions and i happened to meet a lady from houston. over my talk with her i learned she hung out with the road rockets and always had a camera with her. she was nice enough to send me about 30 pictures all from 1959.

so here are some of the best!

first flat-top sr.'s 58 ford
second flat-top sr. is the starter and the olds believe it or not was driven by the town sheriff

Cool pics

 

Good stuff FTB. Lets seeum all!

 

Did she happen to know more details about who/what/where in the photos? You really should try to get as many details as possible from her and your Dad and scrapbook them for the next generations of Road Rockets.

GREAT photos, thanks for sharing

 

Yeah.... back when a 32 Ford was 25 bux !
