1967 Fairlane SS/B Hubert Platt car.


This is Hubert Platt's factory SS/B Fairlane that ran a jaw dropping 10.95 at Indy earlier in 1967. Reports say that Hubert broke an axle at this race, but repaired it and came back to win 2nd place.

On Platts 67 Fairlane, Frank Moring has the
running gear in a 67 2 dr post car(Fairlane)
and the origional body was sold to a round-
tracker and the body was later destroyed in
a wreck

Yes, I found that site on search of the net.

I think by far it is the best site for old school drag cars there is.

I looked at somma the other ones and they don't compare to that guys site!

They have plenty of other cars on that site that are great to look at!

VERY NICE SITE! One of my favorites I have ever been to![img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Thanks for the compliments on the site. I'm also working on a book of Atlanta area drag racing history. David

This past September, Sol and Anne Stewart held the Old Drag Racer's Reunion in Panama City Beach, FL. Frank Moring had his earlier referenced Fairlane there

and Ed Lavender had his former Ed Skelton Fairlane on hand.
