Here's one I got from a friend of mine whose family owned a photo studio in Salem when I was a newspaper editor there. I have no idea when it was taken or who the driver is, or what the car is (although that looks like a bowtie on the radiator). It was taken at the old Salem track, which was located where the fairgrounds track is now. This one's older than you, Fastway...  |

More older stuff, but not as old this time. An early Fred Lorenzen ride...  |

Hey, Fastway!!! Here's what one of the factory Mercury racers looked like in 1957. This is Sam Hanks' ride in a USAC race at Milwaukee...  |

Here's another Mercury, James. This one was driven by Jimmy Bryan. In the background at far left there's a white one with the hood up. That one was driven by Norm Nelson.  |

Wingman, I've made fun of your age on the PA before, but I can't do it anymore. I'll be 71 this month.
