>Scan those and share them with the world! Seriously! I'd host them,
ClassicZcars .com would LOVE Them, Classicfairlady.com would host them. Any
way you like, Scan them and I give you lots of choices on where to post them
up. Historical images like those should not go from one closet to another!

>>Good Morning List! My one good brother in law was cleaning out his garage.
He has been going to motorsports races for just about forever. he gave me 7
pics, 3X5, black and white, from vintage races he attended back in the day.
Some are from
June 72, and were taken at Mid-Ohio. Some are from Sept 72 and are from
Mosport Park Canada during a Grand Prix weekend. Here are the
descriptions. If anyone has an interest, in particular if anyone still owns
one of these cars, contact me offline, and you can send me a self addressed
stamped envelope, and I will send the relevant ones to you.
1. Jun 72, BRE Datsun 510 Number 46, coming around a corner
2. Jun 72, Datsun 510, Number 99, looks like class DS, parked in the
infield, nice close up.
3. Sep 72, Roadster, tall windshield car, 1600 grill, slightly blurred,
following a 911 around a corner, heeled over nicely, looks like number 70
4. Sep 72, early Z car, number 202, coming around a corner nicely while a
spitfire wipes out into the dirt runoff in the background, with course
worker and photographer running out of the way.
5. Sep 72, early Z car, number 240, Purolater/KLEEN FLO car, coming around
a corner
6. Sep 72, the 202 Z car coming around the same corner as the picture
number 5.
7. Sep 72, Datsun 510, looking huge in camparison, chasing down a Mini
around a corner. Number 41, has BRE paint scheme, but cannot tell if its a
BRE car.
Just looking to pass these on to the right folks.
Best Regards,
Jim
Chesapeake, Virginia
