Best I can tell, both pics were taken at Tri-City Dragway near Saginaw, MI back in the day...Bill still has this car and it is roughly 60% of the way restored back to being a BBC street cruiser for him and his wife.

I don't believe that Bill is on classracer, but I will send him this link to see all the messages I am sure this thread will get.


Added another pic from Indy in the 70's.

Happy 80th Birthday Bill!

Bill was a super guy and having raced him a number of times!

Andy, where is bill located now? Your dad is a class act like Bill also, imagine that is why they are such good friends! Glad they are both doing well.
