More interesting cars...

The former McEwen Coors Corvette was for sale....

one of the original Arfons Green Monster cars attended, which has belonged to a local owner since the '50s...

and one of those twin engined diggers, which were so popular in the sixties.

The yellow Jeep may be the "Holy Toledo" car, that raced at the old track with the Secret Weapon and Destroyer Jeeps.

Yes! The Tempest has a "gennie" injected Pontiac motor!

The famous Speed Sport Roadsters have raced out of Tucson since the '50s! ...and still do! :-)

More good ones!

The Stone-Woods & Cook funny was being driven by Doug "Cooki" Cooks grandson... Mike Cook Junior!!!

The Hemi powered Willys is still owned by local racer Don Toia... and was the AHRA BB/GS record holder! It now is used... ON THE STREET!

The way it was!

The Buick straight eight engine was often run in D/Dragster...

as was the GMC six cylinder. This one had a 12-port head! :-)

The '33 Willys Gasser was running a blown Olds engine... which was popular in mid-sixties Gas classes.

"Starvin" Marvin Schwartz' beautiful "Anaconda" sixties fueler!

Marvin's career actually ended at our old track in the seventies. He puctured a rear tire on his rear-engined digger, when he ran over the timing lights in traps... rolled the car... and died in the crash. I was there that day, and it was truly sad.

It is rare when you see two Kaiser-Darrin sports cars in the same place. Obviously... (VERY)... the yellow one ran Modified Sports!
