I found a few old pics, I wish I still had a scanner now. One is of a 30's Ford, tore down, about to be fixed up from the 60's. There's a few pictures from the 70's of my mom's first husband's stockcar that my granddad sponsored and a picture of the Dog House, the restaurant my grandfather owned that was the local hot rod hangout. I was looking for one particular photo of him in a 70's Ranchero, but I couldn't find it...
One of my favorite stories is of my grandmother. My grandfather was old school and thought women shouldnt drive, so he wouldn't let her get her license so she got lessons from the neighbor and went and got it. Then a couple weeks after, after he got over being mad, she went and bought a brand new Charger R/T and circled the Dog House like all the hot rodders did. He came out to see which one of his buddies had got the car and it was his wife. I can just imagine his look. lmao
