Here is a cool site with lots of info about it and some great pics.

Re: Cool color '60s drag pics
 

Would any of those pics be ones taken by you or any other than the ones that were in the magazines? We are always trying to find private photos of Chevado.

Re: Cool color '60s drag pics
 

No, just ones I found on the internet.. I do have some magazine articles of it I remember seeing.. Not sure if they are the same you have on your site or not. Next time I come across one I'll look. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

I just got my new Hot Rod magazine and inside is a story on how to build a "match bash" car. They're using a '64 Fairlane and the builder has a website: www.performanceking.com Look under the "historic photos" section for some really great '60s color drag racing photos, mostly of altered wheelbase F/X style cars. Check out the killer '65 Nova in the attached picture! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

That's Steve Bovan in the Blairs Speed Shop entry. Blairs built and sponsored a lot of Gassers and A/FX cars on into the early AA/FC cars. They also built the bullet proof axle for our car.Here are a couple more pics.

Hey Bill I just figured out you are a rusty Wa resident...B'ham is my home turf...what ya have stashed at your place...???? still some cool old iron in the barns up there...tough to get the old Dairy boy's to cut loose of them though...being a local have you ever heard of the GT-500 KR sitting out behind the guys house with no cover returning to the earth...???I have never seen it in person but my Uncle knows where the car is.. the guy absolutely will not sell at any price...

Hi Bud,
Lets see Chevado comes and goes as needed. Also have a Pro Street '74 Charger Blown 528 Crate motor, C/Gas '55 Chevy, A '63 Vette A/FX I may even drive it someday before I die. Needs a ton of work!A '57 Nomad Will be Chevado II someday, A few old Power Wagons.
I have heard tales about the GT 500 but I have never seen it. Some of these Dairy boys don't even know what they have. A friend just bought a non working Dairy and when he went to clean out the barn he found a '57 Nomad! (Now Mine) https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gifand a complete '64 GTO https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif It had been used as a feed trough https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif He kept that one. There is a guy on the Mt. Baker highway that has a barn full of sixties Chevys Bel Airs, Camaros won't sell any. Must be twenty in there. Says he is going to fix them all up https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smirk.gif He must be in his seventies now he better hurry up https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Cool color '60s drag pics
