Check out the Cragar wheels on that car,,, what were they called, I'm thinking Super Slots,, not very popular at the time, and extremely rare to find today.

I would love to find a set of those wheels.
At one point they were called Bob Glidden wheels, or something like that.
At least every time I see a set I call them Glidden wheels.

The blue mustang was pretty cool but I have always been partial to the yellow Mustang in the picture and it is not Mikes old car.

It's great some of these old cars are still around and raced. Bummer that Mark Tallent isn't.
I think the first time i saw Bray and Gilliam's Mustang it was in a regular SS class even though there were GT classes. That was the good old days in lots of other classes too. I think at Pomona one year there was not only Lloyd Bray but were stickshift Super Gas cars, twin engine Alky Dragsters, a turbo Pontiac/Chevy engined Alky Funny Car and a twin Buick V6 Top Fuel Dragster.
Just don't get that variety now.
