    It beats a girly calendar!

     



    Well at my age it does anyway!
    It's the first of December today down here in the antipodes, (we're always a bit ahead of you lot in the northern hemisphere,) so this morning I turned over a new leaf on my Cragar calendar.

    And there's Roger Spears' '33 staring back at me!

    A great way to start the last month of the year; thanks Roger!

    Old news, Steve. This is Cragar's one & only calendar for the 2015 50th anniversary of their Classic S/S wheels. I submitted three pictures to them summer 2014, one was selected for the cover, and another got the December 2015 shot.

    I remember when they first came out-I drove Keeling's 64 fuelie vett thru the Janurary winter storm to the ISCA Chicago show while he towed his and Dale Lepkes Intruder top fueler to it. RIP for both of them-------while everybody wanted the Gm knockoff wheels on the vetts, John had some of the first Cragars.

    Over the years Cragar has been an outstanding company to work with---------everybody from there phone receptionist to CEO--------
    a real people company

    Roger-------we need a pic of the picture frame your going to put that calendar in------

    You need to sign the picture as it will be worth a fortune some time down the road.Cragar is very powerful force in the hot rod world and to have a signed cover of there calendar will be important in some museum down the road-------?????
