My brother, girlfriend and his '70 Mustang. This would be in the Mid '70s. ![]() [/ QUOTE ] What a great picture. Reminds me of the days I grew up. I sure miss the mid '70's. Your brother reminds me of just how my older brother looked back then. Do you have any others from this time period? |

Here's another picture of Frank.
![]() ![]() This photo appeared in the local newspaper in 1952 when he, along with a group of other rodders, wanted to build a drag strip so they would have a safe and legal place to race. ![]() The street you see in the background is Gratiot Avenue in Roseville, Michigan.

[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] Something kinda cool happened since I posted those photos of Frank. I meet his grandson Scott! (he came into my store). Unfortunately, Scott never got to know his Grandfather Frank as he was in a fatal accident about 7 years after that photo was taken. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img] He told me that he found his wedding ring (you can see it in the photo above ^) while cleaning out his aunt's house (she recently passed away) and that he was considering having it sized so that he could wear it. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img] I asked for his e-mail address so I could send him some pics of his grandfather. One of the pics I sent was this one of his Grandma & Grandpa: ![]() Scott’s been back in the store since then and showed me that <span style="font-weight: bold">THIS</span> pic is now the wallpaper on his phone. How cool is that? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I will try to find more. Here are some from back in 1975 with my parents. They were on vacation. I remember that my dad REALLY liked the Dune Buggy! ![]() ![]() ![]()
