Altereds from the past
« on: February 03, 2013, 07:01:04 AM »
Here are a few pictures ive gathered from the past. I am a picture fanatic and if this is not the direction the board wants to go then let me know. I will slowly be adding more to this thread so check back when you can, and feel free to add anything you have also.

Just stunning pic's....  After the late 60's / early 70's, just my opinion, the era of the altereds were over.  I certainly respect the new altereds for their design and performance....

Dutchman, I'm new to this site and far from a policy maker, but I can't imagine anyone not liking those pics. They are fanatastic. I have one observation on some pics. Your very first pic is of the Mother-in-Law altered. If you look at the header outlets, three of the four on that side have something in the pipe header, resembling baffels, but I'm sure not a baffle. In an action shot of the same car several pics later, they are not there. I wonder if they were some form of header closer/plug to prevent dirt or prevent the valve from cooling too fast?? I hope some one knows what they are. Keep the pics coming. They are great for studing the parts and combinations that were running back then.

The Lil Screamer was one of my favorites when I was a kid.







And the inside of the Screamer, Not too many of these floating around.
