On the lake in '48... awesome color photos of early El Mirage racers
These photos are all from http://www.scta-bni.org/EM_1948_photos.htm where about half of them have captions I'm not interested in, since I won't know the people, and I heard about that page from Dan at http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2010/02/06/four-links-bonus-edition-vans-trucks-roadsters-retromobile/
For 1947 color photos of lakes bed racing http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/02/chris-at-speed-seekers-foudn-more-1947.html

A photo with a story,
Go to http://lowtechblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/picture-with-story.html for the whole story, but in a nutshell, Marc found a post card years ago, then met the son of one of the guys in the photo... wow, and it's a great photo!

Xavier the X-Man's Cruise for the Cause, Blood Drive and Bone Marrow Registration car show.... here are most of the clubs that participated
Above: My favorite club display and most impressive car artwork I can recall. Phenomenal airbrushing, adding to a club plaque and pinstriping, in great composition and layout with the hydraulics.. .. overall terrific display!
























And I missed getting a shot of "The Kingdom"s banner, Stangepede, and the Corvette club. Sorry about that omission, not intentional to miss them, or anyone else.Posted by alex at 8:41 PM 0 comments
