Come on guys! Haven't lived in that area for many years but to refresh memories and hope the show folk haven't forgot, it SHOULD be on Ogden Ave. or damn close to it. The Classic Rt 66 started at Michigan Ave. & Jackson Blvd. It went up Jackson past Ashland and hit Ogden going west out of Chi. So it went right through Berwyn. It went So. on Harlem and down connecting to where 66 went out of the area. Raced my 55 Chev on Rt 66, S. of LaGrange. Picked up our races at the long gone Topps and Harveys drive ins. Saw a title up race on Ogden, in Berwyn, between a 58 Ford and a 56 Chev. The Ford won by about a hood length. Each guy had a buddy to drive the loser's car LOL! Got caught by DuPage Co. Sheriff's Police and it put a premature end, thanks God, to my "racing careeer" Went back to school with a 6 cyl Mopar! LOL! Get some pics of show!
