John Zink at Daytona Beach 1957 Tribute
came across this video, but with no background info to go with it, hope folks here can tell me more about it, I believe the video was done in spring 1990, depicting event from January 1957, when John Zink set speed record for flying mile (no return pass) at Daytona Beach in a 347 tri-power Pontiac.
Interested in more details about the original event, was this Pontiac's first racing success in the Bunkie Knudsen era? about the car? about John Zink? But also interested in this tribute video, who was involved, when was it done, is there a better (or longer) copy, assume the car used is a re-creation, who owned it at the time, where is it now, etc. note:click image to play, you don't need facebook account to view video, best with the volume cranked  John Zink at Daytona Beach 1957 Tribute

 Not that I've got anything against running on rural roads- I just wouldn't expect any photographic record!

A/Altered '23 T - This was my first car!
Quote:
 . Speaking of SGFD...http://www.draglist.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3363 Video http://youtu.be/LQtDBRtHYok Note: At 1:50 you will see Ron Scott's A/Altered '23 T (upper left w 4 on image) which my father purchased the roller from Ron as he'd built a newer updated chassis Altered T w a flopper body painted Metallic Rootbeer Brown. Dad and I built a B/MP 389 Catalina used that engine in the Altered and also a SD421 for this car. This was my first car, the '23 T A/Altered, painted Pearl White over multiple candy colors...this car was given to me as a gift w Pontiac engines and equipment. Those who know, will remember Ron had an artificial leg due to an previous accident. That didn't slow Ron down at all. As I recall going to his shop he was a really nice person and had great sanitarily clean equipment at his home garage. Great thread. Thanks for the memories! Keep them coming. |

Does anyone know anymore about this car? I grew up hearing about this car. I'm pretty sure it is from the SW Virginia area.
Thanks

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
