Tony Nancy's 22 Jr. after its
crash in England during the 1963 USA Drag Race Tour. The car
was sold to a Brit and stayed there.
Don "Mad Dog"
Cook in his Southwind car at Fremont in 1968.
Regardless of what other cars
he drove, George "The Bushmaster" Schreiber will always
be associated with "The Yellow Fang". You either loved
or hated it but few cars of its era got more ink. How it came
to be is a long and amusing story -- gonna have to get George
to put it in text someday. At any rate, this shot is from Irwindale
in 1967.
Fast forward a few years. George
"The Bushmaster" Schreiber staging his "Blacklight
Car" at Irwindale in 1971. George had a glass sided trailer
with a slew of psychedelic lights that were a real "trip"
at night.
A very sad photo.
Tom Jobe on the water, Bob Skinner
