Jungle Jim's cars
 

Have many of Jungles cars been found?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: Jungle Jim's cars
 

Supposedly one of his 69-70 Nova's was to be sold at an RM auction somewhere soon, if not already. Supposedly it was tucked away in a private collection and not seen for a long time

Re: Jungle Jim's cars

Ask Anders. They are probably all in his neighborhood! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gifMaybe we should have a SCR in Sweden. 100's of our old nostalgic drag cars would be there. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: Jungle Jim's cars
 

The RM Auction results show a sale of the JJ Nova Funny..
If truly a genuine JJ car this looks like a deal!!!

"...At a recent sale at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, RM Auctions ventured outside the bounds of the classic-car world to sell 80 cars from the edge of the automotive universe in its "Icons of Speed & Style" auction. The Jungle Jim funny car sold for $63,250..."

Re: Jungle Pam
 

I was looking thru an old Dragracing USA magazine from April 1974 and found a few interesting articles. They had a feature on Jungle Pam that I will share.

Those were the days when we had braless babes...

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gifDon Hardy has lived in Floydada, Texas - about 40 miles from me - as long as I can remember, back to at least the early '60s. No relation unless Don had an uncle or an older brother who moved to Pennsylvania and was Pam's dad. Pam should be in her late 50s now and Don is late 60s.
