Agreed. Give me a good old moonshiner run evertime. Now THAT was racing. Let's go back to the old dirtrack, combo race and demo derby. Identical cars going round and round til something breaks isnt racing..it's an elimination contest. Those are some cool cars posted. I can't believe all the different paint jobs. Like a bowl of Skittles!! What ever happened to Model A black!? ( even though that wasn't true.)

The driver is dressed as in the 50's, wondering if motor is in front or back? I'm guessing Back It realy looks to be a tucker creation to me, but I don't know that either.

I can see the driver has a long sleve white shirt & tie, that was the total dress for men in the 50's & early 60's, can't see his face though To know if it was Tucker? I dought it is though.

Walter C. Jerome of Worcester, Massachusetts was a man possessed by a mission to make the world's safest car. In the end, he failed to advance auto safety but Jerome's segmented sedan might easily qualify as the world's strangest car....... (more for those inquiring minds.)

Nice hotrod. Good for cooking hotdogs. New way to tailgate. I always wonder how many of those flame thrower cars end up scorching their paint. Or torching their rides! lol. I can't believe that car actually existed. And still does. They CANT have built many of them!!

Interesting Shoebox Ford.... now..... the year.....
Seeing as all of the trim that would give one a clue as to the year of this Ford is removed.....
It is a 1951. The telltale is the front edge of the hood..... if it still has it's original hood. The 51 had a straight front edge to the hood, where the 49 and 50 had a "divit" in the front center of the hood to clear the "bullet" in the grill.
This car also has the popular '49 Plymouth bumpers that were popular in the '50s and early 60's.....
