Wasn't it auctioned off at Barret Jackson this year ?

It may very well have been. I haven't been catching the BJ auctions lately.

I swear that last one looks photoshopped!

I remeber this photo from way back before any type of program like Photo Shop existed, or PCs for that mater.

Don Perhdome looks like he needs jacket on but Jungle Judy isn't cold??

Don Prudhomme looks like he needs a jacket on but Jungle PAM isn't cold??

Fixed it for ya

I can only come up with 5-6 names and would love to know more about the pic ( who when and where). I use it as my desk top background., as a side note, when friends that are not Drag fans see it,they think the guy standing behind Prudhomme with his arms crossed is me...its not.

Don't think that is John Mulligan, he passed after Indy '69, and this looks like a pic of FC drivers from the early '70s. Pretty sure Tripp isn't in there either

 

[stitcherbob]

I thought these two looked similar

John Mulligan

 

[stitcherbob]

also, not sure if #10 is Richard Tharp

 

[sdwarf36]

#10-Jake Johnston.

#1-Steve Reyes? Unsure of that-trying to find another pic to match in Google images turned up this picture-in a 2010 Dragster Insider. Sounded like he shot it.

#10-Jake Johnston.

I agree ......good call

How about # 3 is Russell Long (PBR) and # 5 Ron O'Donnell of "Big Noise From Illinois" fame. #1 might be Clare Sanders....he had glasses like that I think?
GREAT photo!
