Frequented Dover in the early sixties, and again in the mid/later sixties, after I got married.
Favorite cars of that era…
Little Giant
George Clark’s Kellison Bodied, 348 powered A/Mod Sports.
A black primered GMC 6 powered Henry J that ran G/Gas
A gold, nailhead powered Henry J that I think ran B Gas.
You might guess, between my handle and 2 of my favorites, that I was a Henry J fan. Was building a 301 powered, straight axle Henry that was originally supposed to be a gasser, but evolved into an altered mid-build, when I decided to set the engine back too far for gas class. And then I got married and sold it before it was ever finished. Other than some low level stock class racing a few years later, my drag racing career was over.
And wasn’t there a nailhead powered MG called the U.S. Mule? Or am I remembering that from somewhere else?
