Great Memorial Day Weekend!

Congrates to Juan Montoya on his 2nd Indy win. Great to have you back in open wheel racing.

Had a great time at the Indy Motorsports Memorabilia Experience swap meet this past Saturday. It was held at the Pagoda Pavilion inside the speedway as part of a fan friendly Saturday event schedule.  I picked up a number of old and new items some of which will be sold on the website.  Also, was able to add some to my own collection. I will be back next year.  You might want to check  it out yourself next year,   https://www.facebook.com/IndyMotorsportsMemorabiliaExperience.

 

Selected metal signs and grab bags on sale.   Sweet!

For a limited time selected metal signs are discounted 15% off and selected grab bags are 10% off.

Check out our new stuff too – like vintage 76 antenna balls, an all wood 3-D Winchester sign and more decals including rare US 500 racing decals.

 

With 20 inches of snow on the ground here, I  need something to focus on.  I got it! Daytona 500 is only 9 days away,  that gives me warm thoughts.

Nostalgic Willy’s Drag Car

I was going through recent photos & found this one for the Stone Cook & Woods Willy’s gasser from the 60’s. Took the image at the NHRA Drag Racing Museum this fall (awesome place, by the way).  swindler willys image  I don’t know how many times I built the model when I was a kid. Something about those old Willy’s drag cars, loved the Big John Mazmanian Willy’s too.
