If that car could talk the stories it could tell. Beautiful machine more appealing to the eye then today's cars.
Keep up the good work. :up:
How about Cliff Woodbury - 1927 Miller 91 rwd....
I am going to guess Culver City - just because it looks like the car might not have gotten its finall paint job/look for the season yet.....
beautiful pictures from both you guys......
You are Correct Chris. :up:Quote:

The photo SoCal posted of the restored Miller is great. The car had a real neat look to them.
Your Turn.
Here's the latest. Probably pretty easy - but I thought the picture was great - sort of like wtf was THAT????.... :p
just bumping this to the top of the merged message board. I guess we can now include IRL era too???
The only bad thing about years recently is that it's too much of the same with basically spec cars and all.Quote:

Alex has it - I wonder if he is cursing the Dunlop tires under his breath in that photo???
Most interesting thing of the IR era might be guessing the driver of the earlier cars.....
the newly merged series needs to get cracking on a new technical formula if this thread is to be passed on to our children ;)
one photo of Racin' Gardner coming right up! :p : Just kidding!Quote:

give me the usual for both cars. the lead car is a bit blurry but idoubt that will be an issue for you guys.
Drivers- Car #19 Mel Kenyon and Car #16 Bentley Warren
Year- 1973
Car- Car #19 Eagle 72 -Offy and Car #16 Eagle 72 -Offy
Track- Ontario Motor Speedway
your court, Phoenix. all info correct though my source gives Kenyon's poweplant as a Foyt.
That does look like a Foyt in the photo. I would have to dig out my program for 1973 Cal 500. That was the third Indy car race my father took me to. I sure miss that track. :( Fontana could not hold a candle to Ontario.Quote:

How about Art Malone, Indy 500, 1963, Kurtis Novi, "STP"
correct.
didn't think that one would last long
your turn.
Hey guys, I'm not playing in the thread at this moment but I thought that someone here would be able to identify the logo on the front of the rear wing on Arie Luyendyk's car...It would be a great help! I thought it was WAVEPHORE but it does not look like that to me.

I believe it is Wavephore. It's on the rear wing, front wings and the Rear wing endplates. Not sure what this company did but it was internet related.Quote:

I have a very very poor picture of his car (#22 Wavephore, design is the same as the Herdez car, just no Herdez logos) from Phoenix in 1995 and the rear wing logo looks very similar. The last few letters look like 'shift' to me. Thanks anyways.
I noticed that on some of Arie's cars the Wavephore on the wings were 180 off so you read them from the rear maybe that is the samething. The problem on the photo is the split element on the rear wing changes the way the graphics look. Are you building a model of the 1996 car? If I remember right wasn't this car upside down when he crashed in Las Vegas?Quote:
