Crawford/Stroner 1932 Ford Roadster

This post is on the Crawford/Stroner 1932 Ford Roadster that was owned by Ken Crawford & Jerry Stroner. The roadster was featured in the 1947 Look magazine article

This is how the roadster looks today after being restored by Chuck & Mike Longley of Florida.

El Mirage 1948-49 in Colour

Recently some photos were posted on the SCTA site of a few different lake meets held at El Mirage in 1948 & 1949. The incredible thing is they are in brilliant full colour. The quality of these pics are so incredible they look as if they were only taken yesterday but are actually 61-62 years old. Who are we to thank for these incredible photos? Waren Durkee for taking them and Jill Durkee-Burgoyne for sharing her fathers incredible photos
