I just signed up, too! I still check in here, but I like the late 60's and early 70's stockers an awful lot. This is a great thread and site and I...
Thanks for all the nice comments guys. I just got my other Cragars down from the storage shelves and wiped one of them down with a little window...
Oh yea, I forgot to ask everyone if they enjoyed the York U.S. 30 reunion. How about those two Ponchos from Nick Smith's collection?!!!!
Hey guys, I haven't posted much lately---been kinda busy on my racer and another Olds that is undergoing a frame-off. About the current uni-lug...
Can someone PLEASE explain to me why my last two posts have been deleted? Both were about a picture taken many years ago of a silver '68 442 race...
Thanks X-Tech, I will certainly try the two possible fixes. They sound like what could be the cure. As for the trans.---I should've listened to my...
I do!!! However, after the front wheels come back to earth (literally) it dies. We haven't been back to test anything yet, but I'm really thinking...
Believe it or not, I didn't really see the "#105" on the current photo until you guys noticed it and said something. Purely coincidental!!! As for...
Hey Guys, Check this out----For grins and chuckles, compare the two pics of my W31; first on page #90 of this thread (taken at Capital in 1969)...
Boy! You guys are the greatest! First of all, thanks for the tidbits on what you think my problem might be. I kinda agree that it is somewhat fuel...
I'd say the turn-out was good. A good selection of race cars, show cars, and spectators. The vendor area however, was kinda sparce. The track...
Hi Guys and Gals, Well I had a GREAT time at the Nostalgia event at Cecil County on Saturday 6-11-11. I had some fun and some frustrations----the...
Very Cool Dean! You are an inspiration. Great to see a younger guy still carrying on the interest of these GREAT cars! Will we see you at York...
Thanks for the interest everybody! And Tweed you're 100% correct. I run 27x9 MH tires. My good friend Jerry MacNeish did the M21 and tried to...
Thanks Bob W. I owe you one. I guess you can see (and hear) that I granny shifted and took it easy. We figure that car can run somewhere around...
Could one of you guys PLEASE do this for me (PRETTY PLEASE)? Please post the video of my shakedown practice at Capital. Just Google "David Siltman...
Hey Tweed, Try googling "York Nostalgia" and you should be fine. Darwin pops on here from time to time so I'm sure you can get an entry form. What...
The '57 "Squirrel Town Shaker" is a current build made to resemble (and done extremely well) a vintage Junior Stocker. The fellow that owns it is...
Hey Mr. Sinistri, I hope you're speaking of York! Make sure to tell the fellow that owns "Buckshot" to try and attend again this year. My car was...
I never knew he had the '57---I thought it may have been a misprint about his '59. I knew about the "Pink Panther". I have a couple photos of the...
Hey Guys and Gals, The new Hemmings Muscle Machines has a write-up on the '68 Spring Nats. And............ I know it's early but, who is going...
I noticed those front deep-dish Cragars on that Olds earlier. I NEVER liked that look----can't imagine why that would help on a drag car. The 4"...
Guess what else happened today---- Back in December when I showed my '69 W31 F/S at the East Coast Indoor Nationals (won Best Nostalgia Drag Car)...
Hey guys dig this: I just received an email from Chuck Garey (son of Ron Garey) and he is trying to find the guy that thinks he owns Ron's 69...
Thanks Tweed, Yea I have that shot and I have talked to Bob Plumer on several occasions. I seem to remember him telling me that at that time...
Tweed--You are indeed corresct sir! Garey was ALWAYS quick on both the starting line and in E.T. department. I have heard that story about wanting...
Dave, I'll be glad to help in any way possible. If in fact it falls within my "budget" I may be a buyer, if not I'll try to make some contacts....
Just glanced at those latest results---you guys know I'm partial to F/S Oldsmobiles ('69 W31 to be exact) check out Ron Garey--quicker and faster...
Those tech guys..... the only thing the V.I.N. on a '68 Camaro told you was whether is was a 6 or V8---even the cowl tag data plate didn't...
