02.11.12 Jack Kromer Nice, never saw a Kumernitsky sedan picture before.
02.11.12 3-Wide That would make this a Vault Exclusive!....  (Just kiddin, but I am really happy that Jim and Leroy Silvius thought to get the pictures out of the old shoebox so guys like you Jack, and many others could get to see them and enjoy.)
02.11.12 Warren These old Nazareth shots are really neat! Photos from the Nazareth Fairgrounds from 1956 through 1960 seem to be very limited and these are in Color! Really neat stuff. Thanks Jim and Leroy and lets see many more. I remember this particular 1937 Ford Sedan sedan setting in John's junkyard several years after he competed in it. He had another one which was all white and for its time was a real beauty. One of them, I believe it was the all white sedan, exited Langhorne via the first turn fence around 1963.
02.13.12 Tom Hoy The car pictured was 58/59 era. Was originally built with factory grille. A copy of it has been started. The pure white car was 60 thru 63 or some 64. Went out of Langhorne I believe in 60 or 61. I started helping John when white car was built. Was in army 64 and 65. First Chevy coupe was built during that time. Second Chevy coupe built winter of 66-67. The last car he built and drove was a Tobias chassis with Pinto body.
