Vintage dragway 42 flyer
- Thread starter BRYAN FUGATE
- Start date
I have the same poster, mine is a reproduction, I think I got it on ebay, I've had mine for at least 10 years.
If it was from 1967 that's the first time I was ever there. My brother's buddy had a 1964 Chevelle with a crate 427

Russ, I dont know where you can get one but I'll look, someplace online I'm sure.
A friend has it in his wall he was there racing I’ll ask about date. Maybe I can get him to let me make some copies
I'd go for a copy.
I’ll get some more details and talk with him today. I think he spoke with you at the rock n race he had a 62 Biscayne at the track with a ls in it ( he could t find a 09 when he was building it)
Talked with my buddy he’s got a bunch of articles from dragway 42 from the day he’s gonna get me copies of . Said Koogle the one that beat Eddie Schartman in this one was the dominating racer in the area but died of cancer in 64 he thinks in his mid 20s
That was the same summer (1963) my Dad bought a one year old 1962 Impala convertible off a guy down the street in Parma, Ohio (suburb of Cleveland, where Jackshaw Chevrolet and Jackshaw Pontiac were)!!!
A few months later my Uncle Dick (Dad's kid brother by 9 years) came home from the Navy and picked up the new for that year Stingray.
Coincidence? I was 12 at the time, but I had a dream to someday own one of each...

Wasn’t the tire size limit 7” when this race was run. To me that would explain the ETs.
