There was girl on Judge Judy that said she used her student loan to remodel her house. How would you like to pay her loan or any of them. DON~~~

Did he crash it at Beeline? I know one time they landed a helicopter by the finish line and blew dust on the strip and Loper crashed his Maverick A gas car (new to him after he crashed his Anglia at Half moon bay) Not sure what year this was but Loper held the record for A gas at that time. DON~~~

1968 or 1969. Lettering was not on the car yet.

What was under the box on the hood? Carbs or injection? Thanks DON~~~

I've always used Bosch relays with zero issues. DON~~~

I found the perfect ride for you. 

I am surprised how many different company's make the three wheeler kits. The shop where I bought my Arctic cat always have a big supply of Harley three wheelers and they are so many different ones, and they sell fast, he travels all over looking for them.  DON~~~

My brother has a couple nice bikes, he left one in my garage one time and I almost killed myself trying to move it. DON~~~

I guess it went under when Firebird Raceway opened and took over the NHRA Winter Nationals??? Saw this driving by as a kid since the mid 80's, tower stood for a while, I always thought it was a drag strip but wasn't sure as I thought this area was all reservation land. Think there was a skeet shooting range out there also...?  If its not Indian land then it is a prime spot for motorsports as it will never be close to housing..

 

What say you...?

Beeline closed in 1980 and Firebird didn't open until 1983. DON~~~

Beeline opened in 1963 and closed in 1980. DON~~~

These picture was taken at the winter nationals at Beeline, not sure what year, around 1964. DON~~~

This picture was at Beeline dragstrip. Car in the other lane was a 1962 Chevy with a Hemi, I was told it was going to kick my a?? never seen him after the starting line. DON~~~

I have a H3 Hummer and love it, bought it new and is flat towable, it has a button on the dash to disconnect all 4 wheels . Only problem is finding one. DON~~~

A friend sent me these pictures from a gas station, these are sun shades on the west facing windows of the Shell station at Beeline Hwy and McDowell Rd. DON~~~

Never thought about selling these. Had just a few made for another project I am working on. Keeping me away from the truck for a week or two. It is turning out amazing. It is cool enough I will do a separate thread on it. Can't post anything yet because it is a gift. 

Try stainless steel. DON~~~

if that was only Alcohol & not nitro could it have been "full" tilt or "mostly full" tilt?????  LOL. 

I kid, that was a bitchen hot rod!!

 

Full Tilt because it had a injected small block on Alky with a five speed transaxle and all the top dune cars still had VW's DON~~~

I ran my first sand car on Alky. DON~~~

I use to go to Lyons drag strip when they had 32 car funny car shows and set in the stands behind the starting line. They had a qualifying time cut off, if your car was running at that set time you could try to qualify. There would be 5 or 6 cars running on the starting pad if you were in those stands it got wild. Good old days. DON~~~

The dude with the truck under the cover has 2 El Caminos in his garage now.  Not sure where the buggy is... 

Maybe he ones a car lot. DON~~~

Remember in the old days the AAFuel cars would warm up on Alky then switch to Nitro, running on Alky they sounded like a mild engine then when switching to Nitro it sounded like a completely different engine. DON~~~
