In response to Richard Lentinello’s post featuring myself, Jim and Terry hard at work:

That’s Rich behind the lens, with Jim at the reflector, clicking off a detail shot of the 150hp straight-eight under the hood of Ryan Newman’s 1949 Roadmaster convertible (or Model 76C for the diehard Buick enthusiast). Don Miller, now retired from Penske Racing, looks on.

Meanwhile, Hemmings Muscle Machines editor Terry McGean and I were getting ready to move Ryan’s 1957 Dodge Custom Royal (equipped with the Super D-500 engine) out of the garage and into position – look for it in an upcoming issue of HMM.
