Is the Rod Shop Anglia on a Tow Bar behind the '61 Wagon in this shot or being pushed by the '69 Buick?:hmmm:
Anyone here know anything of the Rod Shop ever running a DY Yenko Chevelle?

A few pages back I posted that blue crew cab ramp truck. It's Tom Jacobson's, he bought it new. He was sponsored by Gledhill Chevrolet so it probably has to be the same truck. I didn't know if he was into road racing but i'll find out. He is restoring the truck now that he is moving. What a time capsule it is.

Thanks for the update and very cool Tom's still got the truck, what of any of his cars?
I posted this great Jacobson family pic in a past thread but forgot about it 'til you mentioned Tom's name and just found it in my old confuser.

Not sure on that 70 Camaro on the truck but he had an L78 Nova and a 68 (as I recall) Camaro L78 he bought new and ran in ProStock. Both amazing time capsules. Not sure how many 62 Chevys, a bunch. From unmolested originals to nicely restored.
He was telling us of the issues with putting them on the road in California, having to pay all the past years of registrations to make it current. No big deal on a car that's been sitting five years but for dozens of cars that in many cases haven't been registered since the 60's it is. I think that is the main reason for the move.

Also that is indeed the same truck , friend says...
"Tom and Linda drove one of James Garners L88 Corvettes to Florida from California for the Daytona 24hour race in 1968"

Is Tom Jacobson still alive?

markinnaples 01-23-2020 01:13 PM

Those James Garner race team Corvettes are spectacular. Wonder where they are today?

Tom is quite alive, doing pretty well. I hope when i'm that age I have the energy to pack up three very large garages worth of cars and parts and make a bunch of trips across the desert!

I didn't see it if he had that 80's Camaro but he has the later 62 Chev ProMod and that first pic, the 62 sedan, is the car he has in the Lions museum. He drove us there to see it. I've heard differing stories on the lapsed CA registrations. One guy says you can get "non=op" regi if it's not being driven. But I think it had to be done back when it was first parked. The back fees were some silly amounts, in the several thousand dollar range for some.

More on the above pic, it's Henry Segrave's 1927 Sunbeam 1000 Hp World Record Winning 'Slug' Racer.
Powered by 2x 1367 CID V-12's, he was the first to travel over 200 Mph on land going 203.79 Mph @ Daytona Beach.
Car exists today but Segrave died boat racing in 1930 during his 3'rd run after setting a new 2-way Water Speed Record.
