This '31 Vicky belongs to my friend Matt here in Phoenix. Matt's machine is super bitchin', he built it from what was pretty much a pile of rusty parts and got it on the road only about 5 years ago. This photo is recent and has been altered to look like a snapshot from 1968.

 

what a cool street car this would make

 

Looks like my hometown, Jacksonville, Fla., South on Main Street, toward the Main St. Bridge crossing the St. Johns River.

 

Remember when you walked into the old A&P stores,and the first thing that got your attention was the great aroma of the fresh ground coffee?
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Rootie nice pictures.

Near Detroit Lake, Oregon
My dad and uncles deer hunted in this area in the 50's and 60's.

 

Looks like George Robson in a fairly rough looking Big Car somewhere. And by the looks of that "helmet" he must have just set fast time.
Any additional info on this one, Rootie.

Thanks for the great photos!!!

 

Austin Ave at Lake St. in Chicago ...I remember it well ....

 

Robson at Southern Ascot Speedway circa 1938. I believe they continued the "Gladiator" helmet tradition from the Legion Ascot days.

 

Another place to "arrange" speed contests in the 60's / 70's .....
