VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

Not sure at all but could that be Nuvolari in the Sampson car? I know he test drove several cars in Practice at Indianapolis although he never had any intention of trying to qualify any of them as far as I know.

Thanks, Rootie.

 

That's Shorty Cantlon in the Sampson car. I believe he was originally set to drive it in 1941 but for unknown reasons Decon Litz got the ride.

 

these young fellas are residents of the German democratic republik, the license plate says they are
from somewhere within the district of Leipzig. The car is a 1949 Opel Kapitän.

I can see why it was abandoned. It looks like the lumber's all gone.

 

I pulled a motor out of one of those once. We took it out through the bottom.
Don't ask why. It was more than 50 yrs ago.

 

Rex White in a ‘61 Fuelie Vette. I wonder if that was his or he was just posing in it for publicity at a dealer. Either way, cool!
