Roger Jeffrey (New Orleans, USA) circa 1959 with his father and family.
Notice the checkerboard grill which was very popular with racing enthusiasts as
well as the missing left front bumper overrider. These overriders where always
being knocked off. Large white side walls, black interior and top were also
popular. Looks like he also kept a plastic bag over the windshield wiper motor.
Maybe it leaked and then shorted out during the rain? (ed).
From back to front, left to right is Henry
Kraaz, 51 TD Ford V-8 60 Engine, Al Clenaghan 53TD, Jerry Kraaz 51TD, Richard
Adams 52-TD. The Photo was taken in the fall of 1956, in front of Richard's
fathers Shell station in East Islip L.I. New York.
