Album Info:
One of the hardest-working drag racers ever. Pro Stock legend Bob Glidden amassed a then-record 85 NHRA national event wins before John Force and Warren Johnson surpassed him. He also held the former record of 10 NHRA Winston Championships, from 1974 to 1989, including five straight (1985-89), and he is the winningest driver in U. S. Nationals history with nine victories. Glidden raced with his wife, Etta, and his sons, Billy and Rusty, as his crew, and his unrelenting work ethic caused competitors and fans to call him “Mad Dog.” Gene Winfield runs his Winfield Rod & Custom shop in Mojave,California. Winfields shop is located under the Mojave skiess where jets are breaking the sound barrier daily fitting for an old Hot Rodder like Gene Winfield. His Shop offers full Customizing metal repair and manufacturing (specializing in 49-51 Mercs), high end paint work (specialty is blending),This shop can also remanufacture steel panels fenders etc. and also has a line of 41-48 Ford Kustom Coupe or Convertibles glass bodys. I think Gene's got it covered.
