Event Coverage My Photos from the 2015 Hot Rod Hill Climb

And one half decent one of the whole car.

 

Hey thanks! I do plan on painting it. It won't be grey however

 

I'm sure it will be cool no matter what color it turns out.

 

Great coverage. That's a must go to show. Chris your car looks great

 

Dan the man! Thanx for the extra views of the Allard. I'd so much love to have one of these, but I can't even afford a clone. Gary

 

Dan; Tanks for all the great pics. you do for us. Bonnie and All.

 

Thanks Ranchero59 and FourtyDLX. Your welcome Gary. It was a great car to see. I wish I would have been able to get better shots of it.

 

Oh, my Dan. I should have been there. Beautiful pictures as per usual. Thank you for sharing.
Later,
Dick

 

You're very welcome and thanks Dick. I forgot the details of what your 54 has for a drive train, but I think it would have qualified for the actual run up the hill.

 

Thanks for the beautiful photography Dan, new desk top material......

 

What can I say Dan... I love all your shots! For me too, it was the first shot of the Allard that dropped my jaw, as my mind went ALLARD!!! Looks like you had a great time capturing these very cool images. Gallons of thanks for sharing.

 

You're very welcome Nobey and Robber. Thanks for your positive comments. Robber - Once I get a bunch of them done, I will try to get some more artistic versions and finess the ones I have already - like that Allard image . It was cool to see one actually out running.

 

Dan Thanks for posting the pics they are amazing!! it looks like you can reach right in and touch the cars !! Jim

 

You're quite welcome Jim. Thanks for your comments.
I love things like this - a 48 Caddy flathead in a 41 Packard

 

Fantastic Rods! Looks like so much fun! Hope to be with you guys next year.

 

Awesome pics. I hope to make it to this someday. Got any better pics of the flag girl?

 

Very nice coverage. I dig the Allard as well!

 

Thanks a bunch for dropping by and your comments Tweety, bukit and Roadsir. bukit - I didn't get any pictures of just Amy, but there are bunches of them out there.

 

And I love The Cyclone Cad Heads . What a great shot!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thanks Kevin - I look for things like that. I was especially happy to see those heads on such a nice engine.

 

Anyone have pics of the white 32 5w with the number "60" on the doors that they could post? Thanks in advance.

 

I do have one of it. I will get it done some time today.

 

Another thing I love is these old dashboards.

 

Dan...
Great shots, not sure why I like this car so much but your photos make it feel like I'm standing right next to the cars.
Been watching this event from afar and get more revved up every year I see coverage.
Couple of questions;
Thought you could tell me if Saturdays event (hill climb) could be a one day trip and back from Golden, as has been mentioned earlier, lodging around Georgetown appears limited.
I'm thinking about coming next year(fly in to DVR) and stay with in-laws in Golden, wife visited there last month and has been trying to talk me into going with her next year.
She doesn't know it yet but I don't think she will have to twist my arm too hard now.
Also wondering if two ladies could keep themselves occupied all day in Georgetown as I
think looking at a bunch of rusty old hot rods would get a little old for them.
Again, thanks for the great coverage, but I'm really jones'n to see this event first hand.
If you don't want to post on thread and you don't mind PMing me that would be cool too.

Thanks Doug.
Golden would be a very easy trip to Georgetown. I went both days from my house which is approximately 40 miles southeast of Golden. Both days I left early and it took me an hour and 5 to 10 minutes - portal to portal. Golden is much closer to it than I am. I drive across the entire city of Denver and some suburbs just to get to Golden. People leaving later in the day would have had more difficulty do to highway work on I-70. As for the wives, I'm not sure. There are a couple of museums and quite a few little shops, and the loop railroad but Georgetown is not that big. If you came in 2 cars so they could go back to Golden when they wanted it might work. Friday - probably would not be a problem if you went on the reliability run. I followed the cool cars on that and it was a great ride that went all over.

 

I totally love this one!
