Slowford, what years were you doing that?
Those looked really net. Do you have any cool stories?

Actually, those pictures are of my father racing in the late 60's / early 70's. The '58 Ford was his six cylinder car, while the '57 had a 390 in it.
My favorite story is probably when dad’s engine builder let him borrow a set of tunnel port heads for his 390. Early in the race, he started lapping the other drivers. Just when things were looking good, something broke and one of the axles slipped out. But he didn’t know what happened and, somehow, he managed to go entire lap with only one rear wheel.
