Title: Old race footage from the east coast. Gassers, chop tops and more
Post by: KrylonMonster on January 19, 2014, 16:30:47 pm
We all know winter can be long and sucky for the cold parts of the world, sometimes we need a fix.  A few years ago I had Hawes convert a old VHS tape to DVD. The quality is not that good, but better than nothing! Or having the footage get lost.  Not sure how many of these video tapes are out there as the race took place when I was about 2 years old. I do however know of 1 other copy.
  Here area few short videos where you can see cars like McGarity, Scooter Heaton, Henry Williams, Herb Schaefer and others.   I had limited time and can only do about 2:40 at a clip, so here ya go.
