Event Coverage Jp’s hot rods and hot dogs party

Perfect parking for the panel striped cars. Those squared off header flanges kick ass on that Swillco car! Looks to be a fun get together.

 

Where was this held?

 

Wish I knew about it. I drove my Buick into town from Wisconsin today for the GM show tomorrow.

 

Don't want to Hi-Jack this thread, but this reminds me of a story my father tells about his high school days in the mid to late 60s.

A few of the guys he went to high school with got there hands on an small unpacked cargo chute, and somehow attached it to the rear bumper of their Corvairs got up to speed and threw the chute out the window!

Dad said it was some show everyone in the Corvair went flying forward and it about ripped the rear bumper off the car!
Of course that didn't stop them from trying it a few more times!

 

OK, I never get invited to anything so I get it.

 

That's some quality merchandise right there.

 

Man Mark I gotta tell ya as much as I love your vette, There's something about black with white pinstriping!!!!

 

Excellent Pictures.

 

I can't get enough of your vette sweet ride!

 

are you pointing to the frame horn covers ?
Bolted through with the spreader bar and possibly a bolt or two under the body ?
edit : and 3 to the guards/fenders as HRP said.

Not a single picture of the hot dogs…

 

I like hot dogs.

old cars

and

tacky pinstripes

 

Hot rodding is good clean fun.

 

They are rear frame horn covers, they are bolted to the edge of the rear fenders and the spreader bar, they cover the edge of the gas tank. HRP

 

Has a tuxedo look to it. I dig it too.

 

Thanks for posting Mark! Doesn't get any better on a Sunday morning having coffee and looking at some awesome cars. Well, maybe driving that Ardun powered roadster might be a little bit better...

 

Kind of old fashion, but dam it looks great

 

Famous MPLS car. Pinstriped by "Carob"! In my old neighborhood as well. Loved my time living up there Mid 90s

 

It was fun finally meeting you. Al Hagen and I sat around my car until around 1pm. Plenty hot there.

 

How long have these been going on? I was in Mpls from '05-'11 and would have loved this kinda thing! Only made it to Back to the '50s 2x in that time too....

 

That area of NE Mpls is a cool hood. Once was full of Dagos and Polish. Did not start changing until the 80s-90s. From talking to @Mpls 40 many years ago at an indoor show up there it has now become pretty trendy. Kinda miss the old Warehouse District, Sexworld and the whole area that is now the North Loop. Wish I knew you then Mark @Moriarity , I was still heavily involved in bicycles and was just getting back to my roots with cars.

 

Is that the legendary "Wogg" Kittleson '34?
Some of Minnesota's coolest, gathered in one neighborhood. Doesn't get much better than that.
Thanks for posting.

 

Thanks,enjoyed the great pic.'s

 

Yes. I was trying to figure out what those were. They stood out because of the color. They kind of looked like tiedown straps.

My dad has a '32 with fenders and I don't know if those covers are on it. Another thought was, 'Do most get removed on fenderless cars?'
