Amazing Images From The Glory Days Of Racing

1957 Ford Fairlanes

Roofless NASCAR was a beautiful thing. Seeing these 1957 Ford Fairlanes lined up and strutting their stuff brings back memories of how stock car racing began. These awesome vehicles included top-of-the-line power from a supercharged 312 CID (5.1 L) Thunderbird Special engine. As you can see on the hoods in the image above, that engine was capable of cranking out 300 hp. We love this image from the glory days of racing.
