Awsome day as always , met lots of old friends and made some new ones . Our set up for before the run , I drove Johns Impala then its Ronnies 30 others side of the quickshade is ronnies 60 Impala and Johns 57 . Busted Knuckles had an awesome Tiki Bar there , these are just the pic,s from my phone for now anyone one else that was there please chime in with your pic's.
That tiki bar looks just like the one I used to cart to the swaps when I first started trading zines and stuff at the shows! That 50(?) Cad is pretty damn nice! I didn't even realise you were on here Marc......small world. Wayne@Kustom Ink

i only took a couple of pics labrat, is that red coupe Chip Dales old one from the '80s? still in good nick if it was.
Rockin Ronnie said it was built in the 80's but i cant tell you if it was Chip who built it ....just had a new motor put in , man a rumble seat ride is priceless now ! that caddy hearse is everywhere two chicks drive the shit out of it .
Yep, that's Chip Dale's old coupe. Geez... you only took pics of Caddys. Weren't there any other cars there?
No, not really. I just happened to meet the guy that owns the coupe down at Narrogin Revheads a little while back. I remember the car from years ago, but never met Chip Dale (I thought it was just a cartoon... ) Gee would know a lot more about the history of WA hot rodding as his dad has been involved right from the early days.
Ahhhhhhhh Jules and her brood of crones. Where you see the tiki bar, you're apt to find her and Tall Paul.
had a blast @ Big Al's,great to put a face to the name Labrat. I cought up with Marc,will come to the shop soon. The coop that you are all talkn bout must be the red 31 five windo. Don't know much about W.A roding history but if thats the car i know the owner .It must of been in the early 90's that it came up for sale. I remember the man coming in mum and dad's shop (fruit and veg) and he knew that i my cusso. He showed me the news paper add with the car and at that time $45,000.00 was huge money i think for a rod. Next time i saw him he drove it to the shop. He's got a large colection of Bikes aswell,and couple more cars... I think it's still got the black plates wa 1930.
So wouldn't that probably make it a '30 model? Same bloke owns that purple '60 Impala with the 'interesting' flake job on it.
Still drivin the shit out of it too !! Loved the photos you took of my hearse....so much so I stole one for my avatar. I have just bought another one...a 1964 Cadillac Hearse and its on the water from Las Vegas right now
