bump

 

Will try to make it

 

May ACTUALLY get to say Hi.....

 

Count me in.... Can I steal folding chairs from the old guys? I am starting a collection to sell at the next Good Guys swap meet

 

I'll be there!

Who can get there early to save the "Power Parker" spots??

 

I will try and be out there by 5:00....

Bring your Mini-Bike! I never got a chance to ride it after we finished building it

 

Then I won't have room in the trunk for my Cooler,Chainer chairs and EZ-up Awning

I'll try....it does look funny sticking up out of the truck of the Tbird .
If I start bringing it to shows,I'll have to add a hitch and a motorcycle rack for it

 

I use a set of bumper hoops on the back of the '57 when I wanna drag along a mini bike.
They look like this

 

Those would be perfect...Know anyone with an "extra" set? Let me know tomorrow.

 

They are always on Cl and Ebay for cheap, just to a search for motorcycle or scooter '70s bumper hoops. I picked up a set at the P-Town swap for $5.00. Maybe hit up Camping World or a Motorhome supply place.

 

Brian's usually there by 2.30pm or so.....

Dave, you should be there early enough....I'll be there about 5 as well.

 

Wow,That was our cruise spot 20 years ago. I did not know that Santa Clara allowed cruising on the El Camino any more. I lived on Harrison St. Which is just a few blocks off of Scott.

 

Hope to see you guys
Trust me there will be a day ,when a RUSTY chainer chair will be your best friend

 

YEA Sean!!!!!!

POWER PARKER? Hey, I resemble that remark. Dave, you can go on all your life calling me anything you want, BUT don't you ever call me a "Trailer Queen!!!"

YES!! I used to Cruise San Mateo over 20 years ago and some weekends we would head down to cruise Santa Clara, BUT as scared white guys from RWC, we would never cruise Story & King.

I guess I will see y'all there.

B

 

Trophy whore maybe, power parker for sure...but NEVER a Trailer Queen Brian!

See ya there

 

what was wrong wit story n king , great place for us little white kids to stir up shit ....

 

Get ready for the HAMB takeover!

Just got back from Rocklin and I have enough time to post this.
See you there!

 

I would,but I'm waiting for my bass player to come pick up his amplifier.
maybe next week?

 

Just leave it by the door & come down anyway!

 

Bad day in Concrete ,could not make it
any pics

 

Soon!!

 

Man...A LOT OF CARS...it's a bit of a drive from Watsonville...but worth the trip...A LOT of cars & bikes...

 

The 'official' number was 240....

Good to see you there last night Alan...LOTS of people there last night, good turnout from The Strangers Car Club, Phat Caddy and lots of other HAMB'ers in attendance.








The actual 1964 New York and Chicago Motor Show Display Corvair Monza Spyder



The rest of the 100 or so I shot last night can be seen in the slideshow
HERE

The ones from last night are the 1st 100 or so, they are all dated tho.

 

Go to his slideshow if 'ya have a few minutes, pretty amazing bunch-o-cars for a mid-week evening, Hell it would have been a good turn out for most local "pay-to-show" events!
-Alan-

 

The '64 New York and Chicago Auto Show Corvair was VERY Cool.
I talked with the owner for a while,super nice guy.
He also owns a '66 Turbo Corsa AND a Yenko Stinger!

 

I saw the pictures on his display board, didn't realize those were his too...Certainly the best car there last night. Good seeing ya Dave.

 

Excellent shots Dave.

I forgot my camera and was sorry I did. There was a mid '40's Cadillac coupe there in beautiful Maroon paint that was interesting. It had a High School Confidential type chop (filled rear quarter windows) but with Bonneville style, laid back A pillars. The fab work on the trims around the side windows and the choped down rear window were so perfect you would have thought the car was stock. It was only by looking inside that I could see by the weld marks it was chopped (there was no headliner). The rest of the car looked original in style.

 

Thanks Mike, didn't see you there last night, didn't see the Caddy either!

 

I always forget about this show. yesterday about 6:00 I'm out running errands and it popped into my head so I raced down there. good turnout. didn't stop to get my camera

that Caddy was awsome. saw it at the Caddy show over the weekend.
