Carl Casper's "Galloping Ghost" AA/FD at Detroit Dragway in 1969. This could be a shake down outing as by all accounts the 1969 AHRA New York Nationals was the one and only competition appearance of this show car.

Directly behind the car is my father Butch Bryan , the gentle man in the green shirt was my grandfather and the one sitting on the front of the Pontiac is my uncle. The way you see the car is how it was ran on the track.

It is amazing that they have changed the paint scheme since my father drove the car. And yes, the car was designed with a canopy but would not go down the track. It was very unstable enclosed. The sign behind the cars in the museum has even been changed and my father's name has been removed. In 1969 my father drove the car at the AHRA National Championship at New York Citys International Speedway. Where he one 7 of 8 races and the championship.
