The first ones I am sending are of Jungle's place in Westchester. The one labeled "Craig" was his mechanic that
year. The blue Corvette you see in the background is the car I believe he was driving the night he was killed. I read somewhere that he was in a yellow
Corvette but I don't ever remember one being there. He had one out in San Jose that was a '74 or maybe a '76. The black funny car body you see is the
one he was going to make into a rocket car and have me drive it as well as a top fuel to give Shirley some competition. That is why I hooked up with him because he was looking for a female driver and I use to race These were taken at the 1977 Seattle 64 Funny Car Show. I was with Jungle pretty much the entire racing season that year. After this, we headed up and
raced at Calgary and Edmonton, Canada. There is a pic of me and one of the Hurst girls.I think her name was Linda. Sorry I don't have more.but we were
always pretty busy with the car and didn't have time to shoot a lot of pics.Also, it was difficult to get Jungle to let me take pictures of him.I have
one where he turned away at the last minute. He was kind of picky about that. And just for the trivia books.I am also including a later pic of me.I was 19
years old when these were taken in 1977. Jungle liked my long, straight hair (I got confused with Jungle Pam a lot by fans). After he died, I curled it and no
one has seen it straight since. All the best, Ona
