    Just out of curiosity… wanted to see if anyone knows anything about the people in this cover photo, the car, or otherwise.

    Obviously a 1932 Ford Roadster with a Flathead. But, the Road Runners t shirt caught my eye!

    I picked up some magazines at an antique store the other day, saw this one and HAD TO HAVE IT! The photo just OOZES C@@L…

    After buying it (and some other rags), I looked inside. Much to my surprise: 1951!!
    Pretty cool that this is so early. I mean, Hot Rod magazine was late ‘47… First issue January 1948.
    But, 1951 was still pretty early. First Bonneville Speed Week was 1949.
    I know SCTA started pre-war…

    Again, just for shits and giggles… would LOVE to know if anyone can identify the “Road Runner” member, the car, or anything else.

    And I believe the girl is Ray Brown’s sister.
