Schone those bars on Sam's car are killer and dead on IMO. Not sure they worked as good as the Lakewoods with more of the slapper type action but really unique. Love em!

Al sent this cool Drag Dimension factory photo of the press that made the traction bar block that holds the rubber snubber. Where did you get this photo Al?

Ih searching for the history on the company and looking for one of the past owners who I found . I got a e-mail one day from a Lady who new Carl Rowland who was another owner og Drag Dimensions. Lesley was into photography and shot the photos, I have others that she has given me permission to use.

Carl Rowland built and raced this car you may recognize

which later became this car

I do have a few other photos of the track bars being welded on assembly and more info on the company.

Sorry I forgot to add that Lesley was a friend of Carl Rowland and she would stop by the DD plant once and awhile.

Al forwarded photos of two of the Drag Dimensions decals. He secured the permission to sell these designs from the sole surviving owner of the company. I have bought 6 of the small decals and 2 of the large (headers). From what I can tell the quality looks real good. Al said he may be making some T-shirts with these designs at some point. I like the looks of them - definitely a sign you don't see every day. Nice job Al!

Al may be pursuaded to sell DD paraphenalia on this site if there were some interest. I'll post pix of the decals on the Deuce when they come in. These photos show a protective mask over the design....

<span style="color: #FF6600"><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">BTW, these are lower res photos displayed above vs. what Al sent to me. There are no jagged edges on the angled print of the decals in Al's hi res photos.</span></span></span>
