Default Ohio drag car's

Just got this from another member here, passed on by a Ford guy buddy of ours.
Lots of shots are from Dragway 42, Vanke, Arfons Green Monster. Cars from Canal Fulton, Barberton, Otie's in Akron.
There are a couple of Bridenthal Ford's T-Bolt cars. That dealership was less than a mile up the street from where I now live, in the old crossroad Village of Greensburg Oh.
One of the guys I went to HS with worked there and bought a early Shelby Cobra from them. One of there T bolts ended up at Taska Ford.
Neat stuff, I do not see any pic's after #34 of 41

------Geez, Mike!!! Great pics, and many memories. Leohr Chrysler-Plymouth was about three blocks from my house, just for starters. I dated Billy Leohrs wife, Patty after they got divorced. He has one of my old Hemis (66 Satellite). I sold it to him in 69 with a blown second gear for $950 as I recall, and other than the trans the car was beautiful. I was moving to Ft.Liquerdale and needed the cash. Arlen V. used to come into my Dads hardware store (Medina Hardware) to buy nuts and bolts when he worked for Russ Ceifert at the RC Industries speed shop on the west side of Medina (on rt.42). You can see the RC Industries logo on the door of Arlens/Leohrs Plymouth. I have to go back and look at the pics again to see what I may have missed. Thanks!!!........Bill S
