Looks like some of the B Hose shots(with the number placards) towards the bottom are from the 74 States.
Excellent additions!!!!!

Another sad thing: a bunch of pictures of drills in Oceanside. Too bad we probably won't be seeing any motorized there anytime soon.

Excellent pictures. Is Oceanside the track with the white tops on the side towers and the Ahrens Fox in the background (have never made it to the Oceanside track)? And what track had the carnival off to the side?

![](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b379/Nozz31/Untitled-Scanned-07-1.jpg) Some great pics in this thread. The one above though is really great. I am not going to even attempt to name everyone in this pic b/c there are guys from Woodmere scattered amongst The Flukes.

Interesting thing about the team pic is that the rig behind them is not Woodmere's; almost looks like a Chev, like Roslyn Rescue, but no doors.
Anyone have any idea on year of some of these pics, or some of the less obvious locations? What about the B&W photos - all seem to be same place? There is a B rig that looks like Bayport era Ford in one photo (20 from the bottom), but not Bayport; who is that?And who had the white c rig that looks like a sister to Manhass-Lakvil's C with the squared front end?

Looks like the pics of the big rigs towards the bottom is from the 74 states at Lindy, and the Ford I was asking about is Floral Park

Guys help me out here, about 90% of the way down the page there is a shot of the Yellow Hornets old Dodge B, what is that hanging (looks like fabric) from underneath the front end? Is it some kind of engine diaper? It looks like maybe a few other rigs have something similar on them, but the one on the Dodge is the most visible. ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png)

ITS to keep oil leaking from engine from getting on track.
