I am seeking photos of the Bonneville Speed Trials in 1961 and the New York Auto Shows in 1955 and 56.

 

Anyone?

Michael,

many thanks for that link.

 

I am looking for a Maserati that had been displayed in the 1955 edition of the NY-car show.

JoBo, is this Maserati from the New York Show 1955, the same car that ran at Bonneville in '61, is it the Schettler car ?
