Found this by accident... If you're a jalopy fan, this'll make you smile.
A super prepared race track, with some cool race cars & good driving.
1959-1960 at Gardena, Ascot & Orange County.
I wanted to, but I couldn't stop watching this 'till the end. :P :P :P :P :P

Jalopy's ruled...Good ol racing for an average mans budget...Racing action will never be better! I have watched that video so many times and every time is as good as the first! I am starting to build a fleet of the 1954 vintage Gowland (1932 Ford) jalopys and also a herd of early 60's Gilbert (1940 Fords)...Thanks for bringing that video up Dave! Made my day better!

It will be great when Pioneer Legends Racers hit.
They have been in the works for so long. Knowing Jules, it will be worth the wait.

"Old spark" and "Strangebrew",
Thank you for the link, there are so many cars ripe for modelling.
This set of photos really intrigued me!

I think this should be a future set for "Shotgun Dave's" Track / Diorama.
