Sorry Jeff, didn't see your query.....

I found the pics on the HAMB forum..... there's an awesome thread there called "Drag cars in motion.......picture thread". It's a massive post and growing all the time with some 172 pages as I write this!!!!

You can find page 1 here http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=228509

I think I found the pics on page 170. I can't say I've seen ALL 172 pages, but I've tried.... I always check back to thread hoping to see Miss Behavin' there one day  :P ;)

The pics are from a guy called "rooman"..... and that's about all I can tell you.... I hope that helps!

He's got plenty of great pics there!!

To much is made of Americian hot rodding/drag racing in Australia
and not enough of our own heritage.
Thanks again for the link.
Cheers

He seems to upload more from time to time, the most recent pages seem to contain the oldest pics. He uploaded some today.
