How about my 68 Charger parked next to a Wabco earth mover. The place I worked for at the time made the operator cabs for them..

Wow, that's awesome with the pictures from Mid-America Raceway. Maybe sometime this week I'll drive out there and show you what it looks like now . The year I got my car, they shut it down

It's my understanding that most of it is a subdivision now.

You are kinda right, they started ripping stuff down. now this might be an old image but if anyone is interested go to google maps and type in : Scotti Road, Wentzville, Missouri. You'll see whats left of it . I gotta ask my dad and uncles if they went to this show.

I'm going to dig a little more to see if there are some that were never put in a photo album.




Keep digging and posting!

As far as mistakes, I almost posted this 1971 340 Shaker car photo with a 426 Hemi badged Shaker engine shot... then I noticed the Hemi shot did not have the red grille treatment this car has... Now looking for a car picture to match the engine shot...

St Louis 1982... 1971 340 Shaker Challenger.




Freaky! That's my car and I'm even in the pic. I sold that car a year or two later and bought it back about six years ago. Here's a pic of it now. Damn - I knew my tires were old, but I didn't realize they were 28+ years old. Better get some new ones....quick! It's a Non-R/T 340 4-spd original N-96. I put the side scoops on because I didn't know any better back then.

XS - Thanks for posting! Please let me know if you have any other pics of the car.




Excellent find Bruce... I was hoping for a lot of finds in these pictures, but it has been a bit slow so far. I looked through the 200 or so prints that remain of the 400+ that I took (others were mostly given away), and found one more parking lot shot... How about you "Cruizn the 1982 CCCC!"

I have a 1700x2200 version (about 3 Meg file size) that I can email to you if you would like...

Allen




Too cool! That's my buddy Chris Bayley in front of me with his lift off RR. I'd love larger versions of all three photos if it isn't too much trouble. I'll send a PM with my email address. Thanks again.

Chris Bayley... I guess he & I met longer ago than I remembered... No problem on large versions of all three.

Here is a partial panoramic taken out at Mid America Raceway...
