Hubert Platt Interview at the 2007 East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame & Reunion!

Fred Simmons has informed us of this great YouTube clip from Inside Drag Racing's coverage of the 2007 East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame & Reunion! Hubert Platt is interviewed by Brett Kepner next to one of his original Georgia Shaker Falcons! The Falcon is still in the original condition and it's like a time capsule. If you haven't seen the Falcon (or this clip), be sure to check it out.

Bunky Bobo in the Hemi Hurricane Willys




Thanks to Jim Fox for sharing these photos of Bunky Bobo at the 50th Anniversary Race at Southeastern International Dragway (Dallas, GA)! The photos were shot on August 6, 2005, but sadly the dragstrip has closed since then. Bunky and his family continue to show the great looking and award winning Willys at events all over the Southeast!
