\nThis slightly used ’37-’38 Willys Coupe was the post entry at Bonneville in 1955 of Doug Hartelt, Glenn Minder and C. J. Hart, so we have no real info about the powerplant under the hood but suspect it was a Hartelt Chrysler. The Class E Coupe and Sedan record was set in ’54 by Bruce Crower at 151.95 mph, so the Santa Ana Boys were quite happy when they finished first in class with a speed of 156.52 mph. They were even happier when they proceeded to up the class record to 156.656 mph. Today we’d call the tape job streamlining but at the time it was A-OK. The car also ran at Hart's Santa Ana Drag Strip in the 120 mph range.

\nCalled the Lakewood Muffler car in magazines, the SanChez-Cagle-Lemen Class C Coupe and Sedan 1955 Bonneville entry was a thing of beauty and a real head turner. The car started life as a ’53 Stude Coupe that was in a fire before the folks at the muffler shop reshaped the front fenders and trashed the original IFS for a Ford cross spring to get it more into the weeds. For power, they set the car up to take a flattie and the new Chrysler series of Hemis. On the salt, they were after the ’54 record of 154.34 mph set by Quinton-Joehnck-Latham. By weeks end the Stude had cruised through the traps powered by a Merc flattie fitted with Ardun heads at a speed of 166.97 mph to take a first in class. The car also completed two runs at an average speed of 155.97 mph to set a new class record.

\nJohn Perrot was a serious rodder in the mid-’50s. He took his Deuce 5-window completely apart for a ground up resto. As you can see, he made a few changes along the way… starting with a pretty radical drop with the front axle. If you dig out the May ‘56 issue of Rod & Custom you’ll see John later inserted a Cad V8 to motivate his not-so-sedate ride.

\nFriends Earl Wooden and Ron Benham teamed up for an assault on Bonneville in 1952. The Willys coupe had a 301” 1948 Merc for power and ran in Class C Competition coupe and sedan. The car ended up running a disappointing 67.01 mph with Earl behind the wheel. Both would go on to play at Bonneville and the lakes for many years.

\nThis slick Competition Coupe was built by Ron Benham and first seen at the salt back in 1984. It has the distinction of getting Ak Miller into the Bonneville 200 mph club in 1991 at a speed of 225.765 mph. Ron teamed up with his old friend Earl Wooden after a 35-year absence from racing in ’92 with the car. Earl then bought the car and updated it for Speedweek in 1996 after getting back in the saddle and setting records at El Mirage and becoming the first S.C.T.A. ride to exceed 200 mph at Muroc. The salt was good to him in’96 as he got into the record book with a speed of 268.352 mph in Class B Fuel. In ’97 Earl switched to Class C Fuel and grabbed that record to at 269.590 mph the let his crew chief Myke McGhee drive it in Class C Gas and set a record of 269.590 mph. Earl was back in ’98 and upped his ’96 Class B Fuel record to 278.350 mph. He would later go on his head at over 300 mph and destroy the car but luckily not himself.

\nDoug Hartelt from Orange, California brought his slick looking pale yellow chopped '34 Ford three-window to Bonneville in 1951. He entered the car in two classes, Class B Modified Coupe with a 248\" '46 Merc under the hood and Class C Modified Coupe under the Hartelt & Leon name powered by a 296\" '46 Merc. In Class B it ran 138.888 for a third in class and in Class C it ran 158.450 for a second in class. How about that nice '37 push car.

\nCustom Car Legend Gene Winfield from Modesto brought his \"Thing\" to Bonneville in 1951. Starting life as a 1926 Model T Coupe \"Windy\" chopped the top, streamlined the cowl, and raked back the windshield. In the engine bay of the Class B Modified Coupe sat a 247\" Merc. Gene managed a top speed of 134.932 mph and went back to Modesto, California with a fourth in class. Gene built a clone of the car that's painted a bright purple that sees sporadic lakes duty and is still chopping tops as of 2019.

\nThe Kline and Wolf 1936 Ford was entered as a Class B Coupe in the 1951 Bonneville program but when they got there they entered it in Class C. The engine was a 249\" Ford Flattie that propelled the car to a speed of 134.328 mph for a fourth in class behind Mickey Thompson, Maillard & Cagel and John Quinton. In the background, you can see the number 17 that means it's Fred Carillo's controversial '27 Ford bodied Modified Roadster. Fred teamed with Doug Hartelt in Class B with a 248\" 46 Merc for power and ran 154.109 mph for a third in class. He also entered the car in Class C and teamed with his old buddy Stan Betz who's 302\" '46 Merc scooted the machine to a speed of 172.413 mph for a second in class. The controversy was only that the '27 Ford body was too narrow. It was widened back to stock width by taping Sta-Lube boxes to it to bring it out to the right measurement. The team got the Sportsmanship Award that year for being gracious about their \"mistake\" and their impromptu fix. The car made the cover of the July '51 issue of Hot Rod in bright yellow. Too bad it never raced in that color.

The record he was after stood at 190.839 mph and was set back in ’55 by the Chrisman Brothers car. The Bantam only managed to run 172.74 mph but ended up first in a class of three.

\nThis classic looking Class B Coupe and Sedan was the Bonneville entry of Don West out of Pleasant Grove, Utah in '58. The chopped Deuce 3-window was powered by a 258” Merc flattie and was running on the 1955 record of Sanchez, Cagle & Lemmon at 152.935 mph. Don managed 127.29 mph for a first in class. That's Don's wife at the time, Mary, who became a big-wig in USFRA and Save the Salt.

\nHarold Casaurang from Walnut Creek, California ventured to Bonneville in 1953 to have a go at the Class C Competition Coupe and Sedan record set in 1951 by Dawson Hadley at 160.132 mph. Harold’s slick-looking chopped ’35 Ford was powered by a 296” ’48 Merc flattie. At the end of the week, he had managed a run of 148.02 mph that was good for a fifth in class. In the meantime, the Fox-Cobb machine had grabbed a first in class with a speed of 173.07 mph and went home with a new record of 172.749 mph.

They ran the Supercharged 300\" Chevy-powered car in Class B Altered and were after the 184.429 mph record set by Nickey-Teardrop-Burke in 1969.

\nAnyone for an almost new Mercury Sedan Coupe that already had some minor custom work and the addition of flipper hubcaps? This special Car and Girl beauty shot features my Aunt Betty all of 17 years old. Note the Black A sticker in the front window issued by the Office of Price Administration in California on December 1, 1942 that said you could only use four gallons of gas a week in your car. This fuel rationing program ended August 15, 1945. If you were a little luckier you could have had a Green B sticker that got you eight gallons a week. If you were a “Professional\" worker you got a Red C Sticker but had to have one of seventeen important jobs. And let's not forget the M (Motorcycle), T (Truckers) and X stickers (unlimited gas for high mileage jobs and some elites).

\nW. R. Shadoff of Streamliner fame showed up at Bonneville in 1962 with a brand new Chrysler 300-H right off his Pomona Chrysler-Plymouth dealership floor (plus a few mods). Running in Class B Supercharged Coupe and Sedan, the 413” Chrysler had a little breathing added courtesy of a supercharger. The intakes in the headlights and the bulges on the hood said this one was loaded for bear. W. R. was running on the Andy Granatelli-Paxton Products record set in ’61 at 180.049 mph. He cruised through the traps at a speed of 186.91 mph for first in class a tick above Norm Thatcher in his 482” Dodge at 186.33 mph in second. After a record shootout, Thatcher grabbed a new record at 189.826 mph. Sorry, Mr. Shadoff.

R. Shadoff of Streamliner fame showed up at Bonneville in 1962 with a brand new Chrysler 300-H right off his Pomona Chrysler-Plymouth dealership floor (plus a few mods). Running in Class B Supercharged Coupe and Sedan, the 413” Chrysler had a little breathing added courtesy of a supercharger. The intakes in the headlights and the bulges on the hood said this one was loaded for bear. W. R. was running on the Andy Granatelli-Paxton Products record set in ’61 at 180.049 mph. He cruised through the traps at a speed of 186.91 mph for first in class a tick above Norm Thatcher in his 482” Dodge at 186.33 mph in second.
