You're welcome Bruce,I hope you enjoy!

Now it's time for me to unpack the other half of my magazines...and see what other gems I can find.

Yeah! Thanks a lot John! I can hardly wait for it to show up. Keep us posted if you find any other stuff like this. You never know what might be in that stack of magazines. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif Jesse

Oh man...there's gold in them there hills! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I was in heaven last night https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif,especially when I pulled out all my pre-1960 stuff.Basically it's all '65-'72 stuff with an slant towards '68-'70 and drag racing in particular.

Love to read them but now the room has that "period correct" smell that has my wife seeing red...to me,it's the smell of a time when the cars were loud and the gas was cheap.

Oh well after all those years...1 out of 2 ain't bad. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

I know what you mean. I finally got around to unpacking boxes of stuff from numerous moves when we moved here to Arizona. I found a bunch of old car pictures...magazines...Car Craft stuff...then found this website (thanks 427TJ). I posted a bunch of it here, starting a little over a year ago...and things will never be the same https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

John...you've found the coolest site on the net! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Bruce,

I'm beginning to think you're right and as you can see,I ponied-up and became a member. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Hey,where abouts in AZ do you live?I've got a buddy of mine who lives in Mesa and works at a huge Chevy dealer in Superstition Springs I think.He's been to the GM proving grounds and we are working on meeting there next year for Barrett-Jackson.Have you attended before?

I live in Peoria...off of the 17 Fwy heading towards Flagstaff...I'm about 22 miles north of downtown Phoenix...and Scottsdale is about 25 minutes away.

Mesa is about 40 miles from my house.

As far as Barett-Jackson is concerned...click HERE!

Warning...you'll need an hour or so to get through the pictures...there are quite a few...

The first part you'll have to click on the attachments...after awhile I just included them in the posts.

Enjoy! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

BTW...congrats on joining! This place is soooooo cool!

Yeah, thanks a lot John!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif I got mine in the mail last night. I agree with Bruce I'd love to have a time machine to go back and take a few of these supercars for some test drives and leave a little rubber on the road https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif
