Above: the Old Crow bellytanker: http://bellytank.blogspot.com/

Tha above 54 mainline might look familiar: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/07/in-el-mirage-return-lanes.html I've photographed it at El Mirage and Barona

This probably looks familar, it's Jeff Brock's 52 Buick http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/take-52-buick-and-lot-of-effort-make.html

I believe the above is the straight eight Packard kustom that got much deserved praise in the magazines

The above bakery truck is so cool, I photographed another here: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/07/in-el-mirage-return-lanes.html

Bonneville, 1954. Photography of Life magazine archives and a bit of photoshop crop and auto color with a hit of sharpen

That's Von Dutch's flying eyeball on the nose, wish I could read what's written under it

Chris at Speed Seekers found 1947 dry lakebed racer color photos!

Update: (April 7th) I just found some more! http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/04/looks-like-el-mirage-in-1948-they.html

Would you believe the dumb bastards at Kellogg are trying to selll these images that we've already posted? http://www.kelloggautoarchives.com/gallery.html they do label each photo with owner, racer, date, location etc... but really, sell them? Sheesh.

All from different posts by Chris over at http://speedseekers.blogspot.com/ which has some NSFW stuff, so don't look at work (like that'll stop anyone!)

Last week I posted a gallery of 1948 El Mirage racing http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/02/on-lake-in-48-oh-wonder-and-amazement.html

Bean Bandits streamliners and dragster were on display at the Grand National Roadster show
