Default Woodward racers

Some more famous people who raced on Woodward in my era.

They influenced me with my choice of a 57 Vette for street racing. It was like hot rod row In Berkely just a mile west of Woodward on 12 Mile Rd between Coolidge and Greenfield. Midwest Auto Parts,owner Ron Reader had the pictured '57 Vette with a George Delorean built Pontiac under the hood.

Booth and Aaron's, down the street building engines for every one. Berkley Auto Electric, friends with my father campained a '57 Vette too.

In the picture you will see Ron Reader owner of Midwest Auto Parts. The late Dave Kanners, raced Camaros and AMC their Hornets with Dick Arrons, Wally Booth and Richard Maskins. Ron Manicni best known for his Mopars.
