Glenn,
It sill bogles my mind that you had the foresight to take as many historical pictures as you did back then. At the time I would have thought many of your shots were meaningless but now they are priceless. All of that and the fact that back on the early 60's cameras were not very good, they were bulky and not everyone had one. Again, hats off to you for sharing all of these with us. These are some of the best photos I have enjoyed on this site. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: DAYTONA INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY 1962

Dog, Those ARE some of the coolest pictures I've seen in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOng time!!!! Boy do they bring back memories of when I was in college at Embry-Riddle '69-'73. The beach, pier, local streets full of sand, the shops. Man, what memories. I just can't believe you took so many pictures of just "everyday stuff" back then. I think most people just thought that was the normal everyday thing, and only bothered to waste camera film on something truly "special". You seen to have had the foresight to know that even the everyday stuff WAS special at that time. I can't tell you how much I appreciate those photos and the memories they bring back!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

I think I had a Brownie Starmight camera back then, but a roll of film was probably $2. so I didn't take many pictures. Boy, do I wish I had...... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/drool.gif

Thanks again!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Verne

How'd you like to walk through this and say, "I'll take that one, that one, that one, that one, that one....."

Glenn,

I was back east visiting with the original owner of my race car over the weekend and he was mentioning that he enjoyed eating at the restaurant across the street from Daytona. Do you happen to remember the name and/or have any pictures of it? If anybody does it would have to be you. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: DAYTONA INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY 1962

[b] Sorry Jon-
I don't remember the restaurant you are referring to - I looked but I could only find
a couple other shots of the area.

Jon's Camaro - NICE! - Is it ready to race again?
