Default Jungle Jim - Jungle Pam

Just for us old farts.

Last time I saw Pam was at KCIR around '74 at the Funny Car Nationals. It was hot and she had a thin white halter top on that she would keep wet.


SEX & SPEED | “JUNGLE PAM” HARDY & “JUNGLE JIM” LIBERMAN LIGHT ‘EM UP | The Selvedge Yard


Jungle Pam Rides Again! Photos and Stories of Pam Hardy and Jungle Jim Liberman








You’d be hard-pressed to say who was hotter back in the ’70s– “Jungle Pam” in her go-go boots, short-shorts, and titillating tops… or “Jungle Jim” Liberman’s rubber-melting burnouts, wheelstands, and screaming up and down the length of the dragstrip backwards. Liberman was arguably one of the most flamboyant and memorable showmen on the funny car circuit, who knew better than anyone what the crowd wanted– and hiring the 18 yr old tall, dark and sexy “Jungle Pam” Hardy as his sassy staging sidekick was a calculated stroke of marketing genius. But she was no lightweight– she quickly learned to turn a wrench, know here way around cars, the crowds, and the scene– the fans loved her.

“Jungle Pam” is still a legend to this day, and a true original. Sadly, Jim Liberman left us back in ’77 when his Corvette hit a bus head-on in a tragic road accident. His spirit lives through all the drivers he’s inspired, and the countless memories of his “Jungle Jim” antics and achievements during Liberman’s legendary racing career.

My first memories of racing was at BayLands raceway, probably about 4yrs old. Its why drag racing is my favorite form of racing.

I remember Dad loading the truck with fishing gear then going with Pops straight to Fremont to watch the diesel truck drags (Dad was a truck driver) then stopping to buy flowers on the way home because he knew I wouldnt keep my mouth shut about where we'd actually been...

I don't think I ever saw Grumpy smile other than this shot with Pam.....
And I don't know who was sexier, Pam or Linda Vaughn.



Where is she now?

IMHO, Pam was sexier since she wears very little makeup.

Linda Vaugn always had too much makeup and looked plastic. IMHO.


Here she is now.




Linda at H.A.M.B.



Linda in her prime:

To be fair, Linda is a lot older than Pam, but she (Pam)still looks great!

Here's a shot of Linda in her prime with my arm around her gettin close to those prime assets!

I got meet both Jungle Jim and Jungle Pam at a match race at Edgewater Drag way in 1974. Always liked to see him race and see Pam crew the car.
