Interesting exhaust "manifolds"[/QUOTE]"Whizzer" is a motorized bike name/manufacturer.

 

On the set of "The War Lover". About B-17 pilots in England during WWII. Dopey love triangle melodrama, but some very cool flying sequences make it worth a watch.

 

First attached photo is Bobby Unser winning the Pikes Peak Hill Climb in 1956. I believe this was one of his Jaguar powered cars. Great photo at any rate.

I can't identify the second photo with the big car. Any information on this one, Rootie?

Thank you.

 

Niel Armstrong working on his one small step for man....

 

Really don't know anything about the #47 big car. I believe it is at the Pomona fairgrounds and the wire wheels and round nose would suggest around 1949/50 give or take. Just guesswork on my part but a good looking car none the less.
The # 3 midget is, I believe, Sam Hanks at Gilmore or so the H in the front bumper would suggest.

 

Pretty dapper outside of the floods.

 

I’d never get that lucky finding a set of Coupes just waiting for me at the yard.

 

1941^^^^

 

Now you just wait with that camera. I want you to get a good picture of me, one that shows my best side.

 

That's the way I remember them stacked except 3 high in a salvage yard in Tulsa late 50s early 60s. All the stock car bodies came from there 25.00$ each. Of coarse the one I always needed was on the bottom.

 

F*** it! I'll just finish running this race on foot

 

Woops made a mistake on that book It is called The Untold Story of Australia's Holden by John Wright.
