Vintage trophy girl photos

Knuck
Did you find this photo on the T bucket plans site?
Curious to find a rear view shot.

 

Not near big enough 4 Linda....

 

No Dunlop patch is visible on the un-f'd with one but that is a logo I am unsure what it means but it looked modern and sinister...I sent him an unbranded as found image to replace it...but there was a misunderstanding and it was removed and not replaced...I saw that Logo on many of those when I sourced it originally and thought it was probably negative in context...I mod the odd vintage pics but don't drag things into negativity. Anyhow back to Trophies...

Here's the original and the link to when I posted it last...

I realize this is a "girly" themed thread but just so you all know; at my age cars and especially wheels hold my attention right up there with the ladies, some day you youngsters will get it.
Anyhoo, someone tell me what those rear wheels are, vaguely look like Cromodora wheels.

 

I get it......I like the Automotive end of it too...these cars are a form of historic art in my opinion. Those wheels on those vintage racers make identifying period of mags on Hotrods difficult because some look quite modern...I will snoop around later...and that is one sexy pic @Rootie Kazoootie found.

 

R.I.P. he raced downunder and always put on a great show

 

Great to see Iowa racer Johnny Beauchamp in the Bob Burdick Thunderbird out of Omaha Ne. I stay in touch with people that still have some of the Burdick family's old race car projects. Did Nascar steal Johnny Beauchamp's Daytona 500 photo finish in order to cater to southern good ole boy Lee Petty ?? Good stuff.

 

Yeah I know what trophy......but that is quite the trophy on top of that Stocker next the left of the Cup Trophy...anyone know of that...why is there 2?​

 

Johnny Beauchamp won the 1959 Daytona 500......therefore the very recognizable Bill Mitchell trophy on the roof ot the Thunderbird......victory later given to Lee Petty after review of the photo finish

 

So this Bill Mitchell was quite an influential designer for GM working under Harley Earl. The trophy which pictured below is the one I was referring to is actually called the Harley Earl Trophy (I am sure this is what you meant) which was originally a Model of the Firebird prototype...very cool stuff...there is some great history on it below.

Actually the Helmet is Airborne...so that explains things a bouquet of Helmet.

Now that is a trio that could sell many organs

 

I assume north east but where? I don't recognize grand stands; maybe Danbury?
