Not Hibernating...

If you were driving down a back road in New Hampshire in late December and thought your eyes were playing tricks on you...they weren't. The other ex-Harrah Collection Thomas Flyer of maximum displacement sees no rest regardless of season.

Sculptor of taste, talent, and world-renown, Jeff Decker has finally re-launched his website. Pity there aren't more photos of his amazing collection of bikes and cars, but one takes what one can get.

Although there were doubtless other garage-built competition cars that came before it, John Bolster's own Bloody Mary is viewed reverentially as one of the true godfathers of the 'Special' form. The Vintage Sports Car Review has a brief but tantalizing review of the wild, oft multi-engined beast HERE!

Artifacts: The ARCA Pearl Harbor Letter

No Author — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 03:51:07 GMT

In early December of 1941 George Rand, then President of the Automobile Racing Club of America (ARCA) mailed postcards to the club's membership announcing a halt of all activities until further notice. After the War ended it would be a few years before organized road racing resumed in North America, and only then under multiple banners, none of which belonged to the ARCA. This is Rand's draft letter whose contents found their way onto what was for all intents and purposes the last official comuniqu� the founding and revolutionary organization's members would ever get.

A video of a tour of the long-closed Briggs Cunningham Auto Museum, featuring John Burgess. Who has period footage of Harrah's, the Long Island Auto Museum, Barney Pollard's, or any of the other early American car collections?

My roots can be traced back at least this far. My dad (and his mother in law/my grandmother) with his stock 1932 Ford roadster some time in the '60s.
