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.
Bob Salerno

I have included a picture of the hauler that came
with the car, formerly owned by 70's racer "Brooklyn Heavy" |
