It's what happens, male or female, when you get to be our age. Next we'll be talking about who we saw in the obituaries.Just had a vision.........we were all sittin' in a circle talking about shoes and sippin' tea like a bunch of snooty ladies.

Go back to page one and sit back to enjoy the evening. If you remember soda caps in your spokes you'll have fun. No doubt.

Here's one for you older gentlemen.

Thanks Steve

Well, I was one of them and I'm right here. My 33 Ford was in Miami the last time I saw it. I sold it in 65 just before I went in the Air Force. I hope it survived.
There are still quite a few of the older cars and some are still racing. The Nostalgia Racing is popular and a lot of old timers are involved, cars and drivers.

1957 home movie from Sandford Maine. No sound but interesting.
I think a lot of guy's sold their cars before they went into the service. If they didn't their parents did.

Your welcome. It was an amazing time when the supply of old cars and big engine was plentiful and rules hadn't be refined to the point it took large amounts of money to race.

The drag racing scene here used to be very much based on what folk built in their own garages at home because the high dollar stuff simply wasn't available and nobody could afford it if it was. I was fortunate enough to see the very end of those times before the big dollar boys began to dominate and some of those homebuilt cars had a lot of innovative ideas too. Good memories.
Notice there aint a single fat person In the whole Vid.
Not like the people that seem to be able afford to race these days?

Thanks again, Steve.
I had to chuckle at the hole in the piston of that hemi roadster. Must have been some early attempts at burning nitro.
