Several years ago I visited the Don Garlits' museum and got to meet the man himself. Quite the gentleman and a wealth of knowledge not only about race...
@geno +1.
@geno Geno, I'll take the gold one and meet you at the malt shop for lunch.
Seeing your posts are always a treat Rich. I can't imagine a model collection without these cars in it. 33 years ago? Seems like yesterday.
@keko-romero Helped a friend restore his X 1/9. The car is quite the performer.
Great picture with the AC Ace.
@sizedoesmatter +2.
Ford with it's iconic Fairlane side trim. It was fresh at the time and still is today. Then Merc and Lincoln.
@jkuvakas Lol!
Good stuff Mike. Your pictures are always a treat.
Little Deuce Coupe for me today.
The spun aluminum wheel discs are certainly period correct. The owners of the Buick and DeSoto want their parts back.
Both jars would be filled to overflowing if they were mine.
Buick all the way. A wolf in sheep's clothing.
Thanks for sharing Ed. That 56 Fairlane Club Coupe looks great in black.
