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!

Man Dog you are the man! All these cars with the tow tabs and wiring the exhaust pipes with a piece of tye wire out of the way when they got uncorked for the strip is really bringing back memories. Put these on a CD and I will buy one. I bet most here on this site will too. Thanks, Sam
