Sure do look like Drag Dimensions. They were made in Canada and you just don't see them very often.

<span style="font-size: 11pt">If you are referring to the &quot;Drag Dimensions&quot; bars, those are mine. They were added to my '70 Nova as a Christmas present given from the original owner wife to hubby in 1970 (you gotta love that woman [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]!). When I bought the car, I did not know the brand of slapper bars as there were no decals or other markings to tell me the manuafacturer. Al Corporon (AlsV8vair) figured out what they were and let me know [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif[/img]. I believe he had family members that worked at the DD factory (in Canada), so he probably has a pretty good handle on the history of that company. Al did make up some decals (which you see here ) and may still have some. My bars were restored by the talented masters of </span><span style="font-style: italic"> <span style="font-weight: bold"> <span style="color: #3333FF"> <span style="font-size: 14pt">&quot;Deuce Heaven&quot;</span> </span> </span> </span> <span style="font-size: 11pt">up north in the hinterland known as Iowa. What do you plan to do with them?
