Hi All, :-D

Another Bonneville pic from the old days. As in 1955.

Note that the only shade around was in the shadow of the starting "tower" as this roadster is off. :lol:

Wow, this was 52+ years ago. 8-)

Regards,
HB2 :-)

Thanks-you so much for those pictures.

Paying homage to those who went before us, is a real tribute.
