No. We just did Robbys trucks. We moved to Wyoming in 88. My dad, Jerry, sold off the big company in '85. He tried working for the new guys as Pres.of R&D but that wasn't going to work lol. He started over in a little shop next to the Orange county airport. Right on the runway (those DC 9 are loud!) building custom headers. I was only 12 or 13 but would "help" him in the summers.www.jardineheaders.com is what we're doing now and still.

Very nice. Here is a picture of me and my brother in front of a funny car that looks to have your family name on it. 1970 Ontario Motor Speedway

That's cool! Thanks! Those old funny cars had personality. Something the new ones lack.

Look at that! I never knew until recently that there were drags run there.
I have a very similar old pic, dad and his west coast stock car at Ontario... when they were "stock". :)
