    The pic with the cars staged and the flagman in motion is incredible - i'd be willing to bet that it can be digitized and cleaned up like a new penny.
    Very nice, thanks for posting.

    We would like to add your Uncles car to a decal set we are doing for Model Cars that will be in our "Local Legends" Series I sent you a PM this is a great old car and I hope we can do it.
     
  11. This thread makes me feel all warm and tingely...

    Is that wrong?
     
  12. Not a problem. I have to be honest with you the real reason I told you is to save me a couple of clicks.

    Going to a HAMB album is no biggy but my pet peave or one of many of them is to go to a thread then find a link to someone's album when the pics could be linked. Once I am at their album I have to go past a dozen cookies for every image.

    Anyway no reflection on you. I really like the Duece and it had two strikes against it before I ever even looked at it. I am not a big deuce person and not a big roadtser guy either.

    very smmooth old hopptie. You should be proud.

    i visited my uncle and he just gave me this picture of him with the car from a car show in 1956 where he won a trophy,

    i posted it on another thread that was in the intro page by mistake, and i thought it was too cool not to post here
