Dragway 42 Vintage Drag Racing Footage From 1967-68

Posted by admin on 28 Nov 2007 | Tagged as: Vintage Car

Watch this nearly 5 minute production featuring stock class, funny car, and wheelstander action at Dragway 42 in 1967 and 1968.

These Don Dahl provided movies which were edited and enhanced by DAR-MEDIA.com show the period of time when Dragway 42 advanced from a nationally known track to the “World’s Only 4 Lane Drag Strip”.

Watch Chevelles, Corvettes, Mopars, 55 and 57 Chevys, coupes, Willys, and more.

The production includes rare footage of the original L.A. Dart wheelstander driven by Wild Bill Schrewsberry during the days before steering brakes, rear mounted engines, and glass bottomed chassis were in use as well as Fast Eddie Schartman in his Air Lift Rattler sponsored Mercury Cyclone funny car in two exhibition runs including a match race against a top fuel dragster.

Enjoy this vintage racing action from Dragway 42, Northern Ohio’s place to race for more than 50 years.

This is the only VARIANT (station car) commercial I was able to get my hands on!! This car is the station car version of the 1600 fastback. Like the Dustin Hoffman commercial it emphesises that you can store luggage both in the back and in front of the car. Have fun!

From the DVD ‘Legend on wheels’. Wanna have this DVD packed with 2 hours of high quality digitally remastered old vw commercials? The DVD really brings you back to the ’60s and ’70s. Send an email to: beetlejuice150@hotmail.com [Read More...]

classic vw beetle commercial (131)

In this great cartoon commercial the beetle is making fun of other cars with wings, fins, etc. to make it look better.
The message is clear: volkswagen never changes the car to make it look better, only to make it work better. That’s why the looks of the beetle are never changed!
