1956fords. Howmuch?

Haven’t been there since early 90s. This is how I remember the drag strip. Fun times back then.

Thank you. A nice blast from the past.

Keep em coming Mr. President 😊

I’m always amazed at how great the chrome looks. I mean it’s always bright and not pealing. The process was obviously much better then.

Mr. B. Here ! ☕️👀😎👍 Morning ! You need to pick out what is being ! Good video.

Come back to watch it again. Looks like at least part of it was really use a bunch of old derelict cars back in the day of when they were nothing more. They use them to build a Levy.

Ode to a time when these cars are king of the roads!

Thats north of me bout an hour and half depends what truck im in! Thanks for sharing.

been there many times john is a kool dud at one time there were 7000 cars there before the meth head stole them

MANY years ago ('73)! I bought a '62 Bonneville ("389" 4-speed "Hydramatic") BEATEN to convert into a "Streetstock" (local dirt-track race car)! On COUNTRY DIRT ROADS, this car FLEW! I thought I had "the cats' ass"! It was "voided" by a STUPID "rules" technicality! This car COULD have KICKED DIRT-TRACK ASS!

Lots of old school Hotrods. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻

I miss those days of going into junkyards and pulling parts for my cars!

A lot of nice gasers. The combination pickup and early Thunderbirds is quite unique

Thanks a million for the vidio . She was an amaing set of wheels .so many fun memories with the Ole Shitz.

Somebody save that Bonneville.

5.59 Ford cortina..6.00Fford anglia ...13.58 opel....14.09 pair of Renault Daphines ..14.56 Hillman Minx conc (very rare) many very collectable cars

There used to be places like this everywhere.i would love to explore this place.

64 Comet CAliente

The 1963 Bonneville was the hardest to watch just wasting away out there 😢

1972 Plymouth duster. Nice!!!!!

😢 Field of broken dreams!

that yards full of smiles" lov these kind of vacations. thanks,

My favorite car was the 1963 Pontiac Bonneville thumbnail car. But you had some really interesting oddballs tossed in their such as the Borgward and a couple of small European cars at the end I had no idea what brands they were.

That 1947 Fageol Twin Coach bus is a pretty cool looking old bus!

Nice C10. Truck has a lot of interesting little touches.

La leyenda

Love Modified Eliminator wish I was old enough to have seen it in the glory days

Enjoy all the old clips keep em coming

Nice video!

So badass!

This was 2 years before I started racing there. I see the tower wasn't painted yet and the scoreboards weren't up! Wow all that was done by 1989. I sure remember watching Lil Thumper doing wheelies.

The tail lights tell me it's a 1954

Great footage, thanks for uploading. The sound must have been awesome!

The Executioner Dart !!!!

Mike Lambert

it was 198DD....

Linda made that fella's day! 👍🏼👍🏼

The cars from that era were SO cool. I have a few Lindberg model kits of cars from that period. I'll get around to building and finishing the one's that I started someday... someday- the story of my life! Ugh, boy.

great stuff here...thanks for posting

any more vintage ozark/springfield vids?

I was 9 years old when my late father took me to these races. We lived about 5 miles away. These were my first time at drags but at 72 years old I am still going. Thanks dad for a life time of fun

I like that cuda and I like that yellow pickup truck real nice 💪👍👍

Miss Hurst was paid quite well for what she did.

Interesting footage! At approximately 3.20 & 3.40 there is a spectator, a muscular man with buzz cut hair wearing a white T-shirt, who looks like Mickey Thompson, could it be him?

Not very good film quality , but very valuable historical footage! Great to see some of the cars identified too. 2021 is the 70th anniversary of the NHRA, so this early film is very valuable. Does the NHRA have a copy?

Ah yes, the days when you could boil water for tea while waiting for the stockers to reach the finish line.

For those too young remember, the girls' scandalous attire was called "short shorts." At 1:08, I believe there is a glimpse of Bobby Langley's potent "Scorpion" dragster from Texas.

I got a photograph of her and another lady in a golf cart at the 1974 gater nationals. I don't know who's the other women.
