Thanks ...great pics. Judging from the cars in the background, would say this is about 1956.
Maybe newer?
WOW...does make me feel old.. Smile

Much as I don't care for words like "old and vintage" it's no matter, cause I don't feel a day over 60 Wink

. Hey , thanks for the pics Joel, that was great.

Imma thinkin these are from proll 58 or so...at least some of them. I see a 58-59 Chevy in one of the pics. They are kewl tho, eh? I remember my early draggin days in the mid '70s, on the old air base runways...but our flagman never had as much enthusiasm....

There's also a '58 MGA in the background on one of the shots...I'm still looking at the site...got over 50 pics dloaded so far, and still going!

Those pictures reminded me of my favorite burnout picture. I think this is a photoshop pic.
And I was thinking would be neat for someone to do the same kind of pic with a C3.
