Just thought I would steer whoever to a Hot Rod post from a few days ago. http://www.hotrod.com/features/1505...rs-and-killer-paint-from-the-1960s-and-1970s/


Some gorgeous photos as usual.

Two I found really interesting.

The best pastrami you can get on the West Coast. The one in Lake Forest was just a couple of blocks from me. Now I'm super hungry. http://image.hotrod.com/f/119488895+q80+re0+cr1+ar0/099-vintage-racecars-and-killer-paintjobs.jpg

Really cool shot of the Pomona staging lanes. http://image.hotrod.com/f/119488295+q80+re0+cr1+ar0/027-vintage-racecars-and-killer-paintjobs.jpg

They show a lot of contemporary cars of which this Brut '33 is one of. If it's any help, it looks like it's an injected class. Here's the photos for anyone to help identify for Steve.

Cool article. Check out this article of Famoso Speed Shop's "One Bad Hombre."

Yes he lives about 1/2 mile from the track and is known to drive his racecars to and from the strip on occasions. (When you own the largest tow truck company in the county, the cops tend to look the other way.)
