Pic of the Day

[STINEY]

Awesome picture!

I've always wondered.....on the older car carriers and setups such as this.....what the heck keeps the ramps located horizontally? If I tried that I'd have a big old mess on my hands.

I remember that article! In fact, there's a good chance I have the mag. What year and mag? From the 70's.

Its in a HotRod in 1974..i found a great and very long thread about one of the Porsches,that where one of the fastest ones..that thread seems to have exploded with pics and great posts,from those that where around in the seventies.

I guess it helps that you have a big rig,and not that Land Rover,and a 69 Impala as your racecar .Looks like the front bumper is the place where things are attached..and the weight on that races,cant be much over 1000 pounds.

interesting stuff..and what time does to a humble truth.

I still jump my own mind when mentioning 160s on a northern maine I-95.
It was not even considered to be outrageous. nothing there..it was dead right up to 15 or so years ago.

Today the speed limit is up by 25mph, and going beyond is quite a badass.

love the prosche story, they were just coming of age into their modern legends.

I actually got to the part about the beetles..as if a joke. I now conclude, the real speed of the boxer originated east coast. It does not matter what size that boxer is.. some Hollywood spoiled moguls still have no freaking clue.



I like sharing this one.. the way roads changed.
78000 pounds, needle buried. First rig with 1800+ foot pound.. not all that long ago modern day.

the mirrors do howl something satanic.

Yep,it looks that way..too bad all the tow truck equipment isnt there anymore.It was removed 20 years ago,when someone tried to turn it into a regular truck.Im trying to make my friend turn it into a race car hauler with a trailer..duramax engine probably.
