    Hello. I'm a writer, working on a book about Gasoline Alley in Kensington, MD. An article I wrote about a hot-rodder friend of mine who raced in the 1960s in Tucson appears in the latest issue of Gasser. If you get that mag, check it out!

    Thanks! Kensington. I'm writing about the old "Gasoline Alley," which has been here since the 1940s. Some cool shops and very interesting people. Drag races on the premises. It's slated to be demolished in a couple of years.

    .........You might post on the Md. Social Group about this. Some of the "old timers" may have some stories or pictures that you could add to the effort. Just a thought. Also check out the threads on the HAMB about Aquasco and The Mighty Mo for a perspective on those times in this area................Don.

    Thanks, Don, for the suggestions. I will follow up. Some of the most important folks related to Gasoline Alley are still around here--in my own neighborhood. I just never knew this until I started asking. I hope I can talk with them....Cindy
