The Back Story:
I’ll admit I wasn’t around when this
picture was taken of Ray Palmer, and I don’t really know much of his
background. But what I like is what’s
in the picture and what’s going on in the background. First of all, I know this was the late 60’s,
or early 70’s, but it looks like Ray Palmer went a little too heavy with the
hair grease. Can’t tell if he’s a Jett
or a Shark. In the background, you got Howie laying
down the juice on the business end of the old Water Wagon. Running them Water
Wagons around the high banks back then would qualify as a stunt on Fear
factor today. And I see the “Custom Wheels” truck is
doing a brisk business. Could that be
the same “Custom Wheels” operation as the one run by Nick Shuman back in the
80’s and 90’s? Is He still doing that
today? |
