Hi Byron, you have some pictures of my 1955 Thunderbird on your website, after 2 years the restoration is done and it was seen in public for the first time at the York PA Drag Racing Reunion show on 7/13-14/2007, hope you can post some of these, thanks, Bob Salerno.

   

Byron, I am sending some pictures of Salty's Super Shaker 1955 Thunderbird, which I acquired in June 2005. Car was built and raced in A & B MP and finally in D Gas by Joe Saltamacchia Jr of Passaic NJ, raced from 1967 to 1974, Joe Jr passed away at age 29 in 1979, I purchased the car from his friend Frank Torres this past June 05, there are some shots of it racing in the 70's and pictures from when I purchased it and of it in my garage, it was raced with a 427 big block Chevy, t-10 4 speed and an Olds rear with 5:38 gears, best time was 10.19 at 137, hope you like it.
