Pic must have been taken at the Wiri gravel Pit.
OK,well Kevs memory may be a little rusty,so I'm going to say that we both spent a bit of time doing this in a '39 coupe. ,summer of '76 I think it was Kev. DA number plate too....

Pic taken in wellesly Street Auckalnd,Just ran a water pump seal...hence the water running down the drain.

 

Kev,gotta be New Zealand right? ,I grew up in the same sort of houses as those in the background ( NZR ) and was the guys name Eddie?

 

Here's a shot of my ex-father in laws Merc from 1955.

 

Wow, I'm going to print these ALL out, but if we're voting on the best, i gotta go with Beatnik's salt flat pic.

 

Mercmad.....I took a wild ride with a couple of guys in a met' blue 39 coupe on some some gravel roads around Whangamata back in 76-77. I was tucked behind the seat and there was plenty of sliding action like the above pic. Was that you?

The 37 coupe pic is scanned from the Looking Back book. No info on the guy.

 

That was me, Ron ...still alive and kickin'.The other guy was Gary Childs,What I do remember was your friend Cathy,I remember she enjoyed the ....wonder what she looks like now?

Great thread, I've saved a ton of these, thanks everyone!

 

My best friends dad in high school...Jim Miles-driver-mechanic. Rod Pepmuller-mechanic. Bill Frontuto-driver. He was paraylized from the waist down driving the Magic Muffler sponsered car. One of the Halibrand wheels blew apart on one of the runs and he lost control of the car. The white fiat bodied hemi powered car was replicated to o.g. and has been at shows locally in the Cali area. KNUX!

 

Me likey these........

 

Henry,
that looks like a custom Cord. Any info on that pic? Thanks

 

I'm here to pick up your daughter............

 

This is one of the coolest threads ever!!

 

some I have found on the net.

 

Hey Kev...is that your Austin 1100 in the background???

 

No, don't be silly! I had a Hillman Husky

 

One of my favs, sorrys it's small.

 

These pictures were taken in April 1970 in my back yard ('38 picture is my front yard) Artesia, Ca.. That's a '37 Ford pick-up and we're putting a '53 Merc Flathead in it and she was great running old truck. That '38 was all stock right down to the rip and tear upholstery, another great running old Flathead. The '53 F100 in the back ground ran a 401 Nailhead after I blew up the Flathead.

 

Does anyone have any more pictures of "T" or "A" Coupe drag cars from the '60's and '60's ????
