Nice '68 at 1975 NSRA Street Machine Nationals. Love the raised stance up front. NSRA always had the NSRA Street Machine Nat's the weeks after the Street Rod Nat's at the same location.

Check out the "machine" banner hung over the "rod" lettering on the sign. NSRA always treated the Street machine folks as second class citizens though.

At the '72 NSRA Street Machine Nat's in Memphis, the NSRA had the local NSRA street rod club judge the street machines. What was funny was they put the street rods of the host club members inside the air conditioned fairgrounds building but left the street machines out in the hot humid sun.

I wish I could tell more about this one, but it is just one I saved off the net a while back. I love the spaghetti hanging under this thing.

----That spaghetti is a set of Tubular Automotive headers. "Tubies" for short! We used to see them around New England a lot as they were a southeast Massachusetts company. They were exotic looking but were hell on a stock height car. My cousins Shelby GT500 was equipped with them when he got it used. It seemed like he would be at the local muffler shop getting flattened sections cut out about once a week.
----And now that I have taken a second look at the picture, the car was an original 375 horse, black on black 67 Chevelle bought new by a friend of mine from Provincetown, MA. Chris White knows him as well. He sold the car back in the late 60s/early 70s I think, and found it again at Carlisle about 15 years ago, I think. Car was a real runner!!!.....Bill S
