Bring on the Ivo 4-engine Buick dragster pic.......I think it ran pretty decent considering . I think he had a 23-24 T roadster that was nailhead powered , if I "amember" correctly .

Kinda sad ending for a great era of well built American cars..that we loved..We lived during the best era of history in my opinion I would not have wanted to live in any other time or place than I have ..I am going out feeling blessed for sure..the best music, the best cars, the best od jobs .the best life style, We sure have a lot to be thanful to for all the guys that fought the battle of freedom for us.. I know it's not Rememberance day but as I go into this new year I am feeling pretty lucky and blessed for everything I have ..I sure evry body here feels that way too..Life is great..Hope you enjoy these old pics as much as I like em...

Agree, thanks much Chuck, some old ads there i haven't seen in years!!

The header pic, you can almost see through them, the next colour phase would be going to white.

The pic of the header flames and the dragster could be "Ed McCullough?" who went onto funny cars.

The new television ad brought back memories ...looks like a 7 inch . About 1951-2 , one kid on the block had one ..7" and we would go over and watch , spellbound . Then my mother ended up buying an Admiral , I'm gonna say 12 inch , and I was in heaven . Lots of " test pattern " to watch too .

I remember the Corn Flakes frogmen, I had a couple. I think it was baking soda that was packed into the bottom of them that got them to move in the water. Forgot all about that stuff until I seen the ad. I wonder what my grandkids will have to remember....their first Ipad, Ipod, Isomething or other I suppose.

Nah..It's easier to just keep them on my Pc and I have them on a thumb drive for safe keeping..besides when I croak my family will just toss all this old crap as they put it..They think I just waste my time with all this old past time stuff..I should get them better oganized it's hard to find certain things but I was just saving them all for me but I am glad that others here appreciate looking back ..they were good times and good memories for me anyway even though some were before my time too..I appreciate the new technology but I love where we came from and how we got here..It has been a great journey eh !!!
