There was a place here in the Detroit area that
started it all for Chrysler, it was called the
Woodward garage, this is where Chrysler first started
the drag racing stuff then of course they would
hit Woodward with the latest and greatest against
the GM and Ford boys. Back then all the big 3 did
alot of testing/street racing on Woodward

Thanks for the name additions, Stewart. Now how about some of your cars and crews?

I am the last person to be famous -- I pale in comparison to the Missile guys - I was just a gopherwannabe.

More pictures coming shortly --- now you all contribute your photos and comments or personal experiences with the famous people

Great thread Stewart. I love the history lesson.

Some time you just have to push the darn thing.

and sometimes you just take pictures of yourself

or are just so disgusted that you hang up the towel and take a nap

or party till your brains fall out

or you just stand around and look like you know what is happening

and then when it breaks, of course it does it in front of the whole world
