Let us see them too!

I didn't want to clutter up the forum with pics of myself. Too show offy(?).  Is that a word? I'll see what I can do...

This is the best I can do. As far as the details, man, this was 44 years ago! But, 3 bars in both doors, rear uprights to the top of the frame hump. Gauges, mostly tach, oil and water. Fire extinguisher mounted on the hump to the right of the seat. Floor shifter. Bar went from cross bar behind driver to right front corner of the cage. I don't remember how the front hoop was. Of course double shocks  on right front. That's as much as I can remember. Oh yea, exhaust was flex from the headers (tube) to the bus exhaust pipes down the side. Sounded great, especially going down the straights at the MIlwauke Mile. Hope all this helps.

Ok you two! LOL, that lady is my best friends wife, he owned the car. Had my motor, trans and rear in it. Unfortunately she is in bad shape right now with cancer. I'm hoping to make a trip to Gatlinburg to see her in the next couple of weeks......

Pretty hard not to see the pink! We just combined our colors.  My cars had been brown, white and orange. He was a big Marty Robbins fan ergo the pink....His son Rick Tackman Jr. runs a black and pink scheme on his Mid Am cars now.......keeping pink in the family, I guess.

Well, thanks David. I'm sure there are a lot of other former, or present,  racers that could post some pretty awesome pics too. Maybe we should have a section for that. Post a pic and a story to go with it maybe......I can come up with more, from the junk I started with to the end of my racing.
