Cool photos. How about that deep sump pan on that Nova? Wouldn't want to lift the wheels off the line on that one.

I gotta be honest and say that those are some of the best vintage drag racing photos that I've seen in a long time. I've grown very tired of seeing all the nationally-known cars back then and love to see photos like these of a typical weekend at the smaller strips with the local heroes battling it out back then. Every photo with an unknown car is a treat. Thank you very much for taking the time to post them. More please!

The Strickler / Jenkins Hi-Performance Clinic

Back in the sixties / seventies GM would foot the bill for traveling performance clinics such as this one. A post card in the mail was all it took to bring out the loyal following.

This was quite a show, Grumpy and Dave were both there with a bunch of cars and the latest GM high performance parts and accessories.

Curry Chevrolet had the rest of the service department filled with the hot local street and race cars. It was not close by and unfortunately I forgot my camera in the rush to get there!
