Models and models. 1972 Auto Show, Chicago, Illinois, USA. The photo was taken in February of 1972. This print was made in January, 2026 on 8” x 10” paper.
This one caught my eye. As a 20+ years drag racer back in the day we attended the Specialty Equipment Manufactures / Retailers event in Las Vegas every year. I like the scene here as it brings back fond memories.
A very good friend of mine, Leroy Chadderton, was the first AA/FA in the 7's and later the first into the 6's. His car was called The Magnificent 7.....as we ran in the NHRA Division 7 here in So Cal.
I ran in the Pro Gas class with a 77 Vega and a best time of 9.70 ET @ 140 MPH in the quarter mile.
