Pics from Back in the Day

Taken in 1987... MY '70 Duster 340 and a buddy's '68 GTO while we were in Patrol Squadron 17 (VP-17) at NAS Barber's Point, HI.

Was the 340 quicker? I know you raced them...

Did you sell the Duster and leave it here in Hawaii, or did you take it back to the mainland when you left. I know a guy that picked up a 70 red 340 duster earlier this year. Looks similar, except some one had added the two Dart Swinger hood scoops, and centerline rims.

I question the decision to wear white or nearly white pants to the drag strip.

Either you are VERY confident...

...or borderline dumb.

...or own a laundromat.

They worked for these guys!

I was in a pit crew for a circle track driver, over 40 years ago. We wore white pants back then. The team owner gave them to us. Looking back, we looked quite stylish. We didn't get very dirty either, most of the prep work was done before the race started.
