I picked up on the push vehicles early on in the video!.... NOT shown in this one though is a car that was the best appearing car TWICE at the winternats..... owned by Jack Williams from Burnaby, BC  (a suburb of Vancouver - Canada)....

The car won competition eliminator at the 1963 Winternationals, best appearing car at the 1964 Winternationals and best appearing car again at the 50th anniversary....

The LSR connection is that I went to school with Jack's children, Wendy and Dean.... I remember Wendy more than Dean as she was closer in age to me than Dean (the "little" brother) was.... They lived 4 blocks north of us and had the same house address as we did.....

Jack, the legendary drag racing hero, also had a 1940 Willys blown gasser about which the late Doug Cook quipped, looked as good as their car ....... Jack had been to Bonneville in his earlier years a part of a team that, while on their way to Great Bend, Kansas for the NHRA Nationals in about 1955, stopped at the salt, entered their car in a class which it fit, set the record and then went on to drag race it several days later.... Jack has since been to the salt several times - first, in the early 80s with his wife Gerri, while riding their Harley full dresser on their way back from Sturgis and, later, as a guest/crew member of Canadian motorcycle racer Jason Mcvicar and his father, who has been a lifelong friend of the Williams family.....

As with a lot of the legends of racing, Jack is fading these days.... I worry as I see him doing so.... Wendy is sort of taking over as the "guardian" of the legend and the cars....

The car is well taken care of though....Wendy and her husband, John, see to that!

Can we get a new class for this?
