Jim
After many years of not buying "lotsa books", recently
I've been buying many of them at eBay auction site
Http://www.eBay.com
I have recently added
Offenhauser/White,Gordon (in-print)
Miller/Borgeson, Griffith
Golden Age of the American Racing Car/Borgeson, Griffith
(extra copy for sale if anyone is interested $40)
Illustrated History of Sprint Cars/Fox, Jack
Illustrated History of Indianapolis 500/Fox, Jack
Board Tracks, Gut, Gold & Glory/Walloon, Dick
I also have 19 years of Automobile Quarterly
Vol 1 through Vol 19 (extra) for sale. Looking for
AQ Vol 29 to current. Also looking for a book by
Mark Dees called The Miller Dynasty.
Also looking for any mention of the HAL engined
sprint cars from the 30s and 40s. I recently purchased
a dirt "Big Car" fitted with a HAL engine (not just a HAL
head on a B block, but has HAL block with 5 mains.
Need to find all HAL related information. This car
was known in the mid-west as the Johnson #8 HAL.
Enjoy!
