Attached are a couple of picture that were given to me by Frank Salemi of Baltamore many years ago. I have no other details to date the Photos. Edit: Frank Salemi sent me these 2 pics in March 1990and the accompaning note indicated that the photos were taken at the New York Auto show in 1972. He noted the AUSCA badge on the hood.

Ciao Ken

Here is a scan of an old technology picture of a picture that I took some years back at a vintage car race. It was on display in the Camaro owner's paddock.

I'm not positive that this picture is from a Trans Am race.

Ciao

Ken

Notice on page 24 of the Program, the ad for CATES Speed Equipment and the sketch of RHD #25, GTA 752507. You never know what neat stuff is out there.

Any body near Mansfield, Ohio want to go over to Cates and see about getting that print for me.
