We used to have good times at Syracuse...nice folks up there! I run my 39' w/o a hood and for the first time, I had a problem at the Nationals. It had rained hard on the field about 5 years ago, and when I went back to my car to start it the starter clunked and broke. Ended up that I had "Hydra" lock and after installing two starters and kicking over the engine w/o the plugs...my problem was solved. Anyway, it was the help of other Rodders and Advance Auto parts, that I was able to pick-up the part I needed.... I heard that "Upstate N.Y." wanted to Suceed from "Metro N.Y." and start their own state!
i wanna thank stan biehl of stans stainless & his friend at the swap meet that were giving away the unbelievable crumb cake slices if you were a hamber!! delicious!! great guys!
Until recently this '55 was owned by Roger Cavallaro of Rochester, NY. Now owned by Rob Green. Frank C.
Thanks for the pics! I miss being able to go to this show...that Buick gasser is pretty neat , and I love that ol 58 Pontiac custom (I think it was a Pontiac?) its been quite a few years since I saw it in person.
Could you guys help me track down this dragster from Lyons, NY? This has to have some history behind it? Thanks, Joe
