History Dragway 42 West Salem, Ohio (mid 60's)

Cool pics! Would it be too much to ask of you to post these one at a time on the Rock & Race thread as the event moves forward toward Labor Day weekend? You can help generate some additional excitement. Same for anyone else who may have old DW42 pics. Thanks for posting. Dave

The 33 Willys that was operated with Bach's body shop came from the St Paul Minneappolis area. Jim Clint and I went there in November loaded it up and fled before a snow storm. It was in a garage with much dirt and bird droppings on it. We returned to Dayton and proceeded tho build what is in the pics posted here. If anyone has a good pic I would appreciate a copy. Thank you M. Ross
