Here's a "heads up" for those of you that enjoy these old photos:  I've got a few people working on getting as many of these, as well as a bunch of others, into the Photogallery (accessed through the tab near the top/left of the home page).  Sometimes, I warn you, the gallery crashes -- but it's usually up and running.  Anyway -- we're going to try to archive every photo we can find - so you don't HAVE to go one by one through this or other threads.  If you've got photos you'd like put into the gallery -- let me know and we'll find some not-too-inefficient way to get them from you to the Photogallery.  Thanks.

Slim, I am afraid that the gallery will restrict one of the great features of this thread:    the ability to comment on a picture

and then add one of their own.

I haven't looked at the gallery for a long time. I may be completely off base.

If I'm wrong, I would vote for my punishment being a delayed start at Salt Talks with the Vulture having the first

whack at the donors.

Since when did efficiency enter into the behavior of us LSR folks?

Slim, great idea.  :-D

Freud, what's to prevent someone from posting a pic here from the gallery and commenting on it?  :wink:

Both ways have advantages... jmho

Just an extra step.

I can live with anything but I just think about attending a museum.

Where do you post your comments as you walk thru the place?

I like Freud's point. What's really needed is some way of systematically adding pictures that are posted on the forum to the gallery under the appropriate title. Sorry SSS, I just know this involves a whole bunch more work. :evil: :evil:

The crew of the Ball Point Banana

The hero driver is standing in the upper left corner (headless) and his crew is doing the housecleaning.

Remember, Saintless and GoNutzKey tried to tow him to a record.

Her pit pass says 1974.

Gary,

That yellow car in front of the 102 Modified is the old Deeds & Saderup Modified Sports Car. It is currently owned by Korey Bligh, who is a crew member for Marlo Treit.
