    "Build a dragster for $250.00." Wouldn't that be sweet? Probably cost that much to crank one now.

    I don't suppose the names of the folk in that picture are listed inside by any chance? The guy behind the front wheel is the dead spitting image of my mate Andy Hutton.

    Oh man I saw this roadster in person in '62 or '63. I went to auto tech school in Morrisville NY and a buddy, Bill Frasche was one of my classmates. He was from Rochester and his dad worked for Kodak (who didn't back then). I went home one weekend with him and he took me to a spotless garage and there sat that roadster. The first magazine car I had ever seen in person! A sweet ride and best of all, an East Coast car. How great it would be for the family to restore that car.
