Car pictures from Detroit Dragway (1960's)

[72mav]

Hi Everyone.
Looking for a pic/info on my Dads old C/A Crosley. My dad built this car around 1962. It was a 56 Ford chassis shortened 2'. Front end was 40's era Ford with the rear solid. Engine was a 312 with three duces.Drivers seat was in the rear of the car.Thes rear tires were outside the body, since the axle was not narrowed. Just a typical home-built car of the era built by a 20 year old kid then, LOL. Body was a 50-52 Crosley coupe, painted "Vintage Burgendy" This color was the burgendy used on Lincolns and 64 Thunder-bolts then. My Dad sold the car arround the summer of 65 I think to a neighbor Roy Holigan of Flint, MI.
Roy wasnt a racer, and sold it shortley therafter. Last we heard(years ago) a couple guys from Detroit were running it with a small-block Chevy at Detroit.
Would like to get any info/pics on the car if possible. Hopefully some Detroit local may know of it. it probably dosent exist anymore. But you never know. Maybe its in a field or barn somewhere???

Im going to my Dads Friday and will scan some pics and post them next week hopefully.
Anyone with info can PM me or reply to the thread. Heres my cell also.
Thanks.
