1960s Classified Ads

[Steve Shauger]

What year was the GS Corvette ad from. The 15 s newtown st address was Penske's first race shop in Newtown Sq. , Pa. I believe he moved to the larger winding way location (also in newtown Sq.)in 1966 or early 67.

GS ad definitely came from a '66 or '67 HRM but they're already back in the stack so I'm not exactly sure.

("Definitely but not exactly" came from my pre-law class in college...)

I'll start with a few famous cars.

Here's Garlits' 1962 nats winner--back when he sold his outdated rails.

'58-ish Edsel-Ranchero what-if.



Blown SBC.



Neat Kurtis roadster.



Thames ("temms") panel gasser project anyone?



Clean '47 Chev fattie custom.



Speaking of gasser projects, two from the same seller.

Went to one of Doc Swigarts auctions about a month ago. Lots of wind up toys and misc. collectable stuff, no 32 Ford though.

More famous car people's cars for sale.

Another Roth car, this time the Outlaw, being sold off to help pay Big Daddy's bills. Car now resides in the Peterson Museum.



The famous Barris "Kopper Kart" painted by Larry Watson and Junior Conway while they worked for Barris. I think the Kart was lost in the Barris shop fire but it may have survived.



Pinstriper and Monkeemobile builder Dean Jeffries' custom Porsche.



I think it's spelled Hedrich and I think he wrote for Hot Rod back in the day.



Another Vette custom.



How'bout a slammed and leaded Merc?



Rare early Healey with a Corvette engine added for more oomph.



Custom Olds hardtop.



I always liked the '39-'40 Studes.



Finally, another cheap Deuce coupe street machine.

I am a Yenko Stinger collector, but I also own the Roadster Pickup that was in the movie "The Lively Set" show in the ad at the bottom of your second page. Can you tell me what issue of HRM the ad was in? I would like to find a copy for my records.
Thanks, Jeff Moore
