"TOAD" and or "Grover" could never be as happy as I am with my new scanner skills...

Like the ads too...spent many a weekend at Southwest Sporting hanging out with Mickey before Dan moved to Apple Valley. Love the phone numbers also.

Ron- Great posting. Can you believe the mention of gas at 35 cents per gallon? Love the prices shown in the for sale postings. :D The write up on Lake Spivy brings back memories. Met Ray Jefferies there, quite a racer. Any of you Texans have any info to post on Ray's racing days?
Ye Olde Desert Geezer Al :cool:

I saw a number of racers who lived in Carlsbad, and Escondido. It would be fun to see if they are still around, and maybe get them to an antique event.

I knew you could do it Ron. What a great investment. With that you can scan old pics and clean them up with your computer.

I never knew Marcel was that much of a powerhouse. When did he quit driving? It must have been before we met him in 1969. He was sure dumping a lot of stuff on the market after amassing a ton of points in 1964.
