Event Coverage Manifolds on Main, Irving Tx - pics!

It was a great show....the best collection of vintage race cars I've ever seen outside a museum. It's worth going just to check them out. Didn't take a lot of pictures, but here's what I got...thanks Bart!













I know it's "OT" but god damnit I love this car...




Really cool Dodge roadster...

 

Very nice....
















Went toppless, I tihnk the car likes it better that way.


On to the reallllly cool stuff.

 

Thats all folks!

 

Nice pics ..Thanks for sharing

 

Those old sprints and midgets were the highlight for me also,

 

Could have looked at that Miller and the Maserati for hours! Great show Bart we had fun!

 

Great shots, thanks for taking time to do so, the wife had borrowed her camera
and went to another outing so none from me..

You can send that '36 3window to my house. What a beautiful car. Thanks for posting the pics.

 

Did anyone get a picture of that other 3 window 36 ---black, I think, with a Packard(?) grill. It was sitting just a few feet from the one Fidgeter got pictures of on one of the laps I made through there??!!

 

Thanks for the great pics. the Pontiac Cat was way cool, but give me that white 36 Ford....

 

Great Pictures

 

The picture I took of it was too fuzzy to be worth showing. Here's a couple from the autorama.

 

Thanks, Fidgeter. I only did a quick turn through the Autorama on setup nite and don't remember seeing that beauty. After I posted last nite, I got to thinking maybe that was a Zephyr instead. One heck of a custom! It was neat seeing both of those cars close together on Saturday. Kind of a before and after deal!!

 

Cool show,but (manifolds on main?) sorry,that just sounds corny to me

 

Corny, yes.

But you will remember it!

Bart, thanks for all the race cars, that was the highlight of the show.......cool stuff and great job.

 

Nobody loved those race cars more than me!

I can't beleive we had so many together, biggest gather every in Texas for vintage open wheel cars and BTW we had two no shows.

Ken, thanks for spending your B-day with us.

I guess it depends on your perspective----if you grew up in the city ...Manifolds on Main St. conjures up visions of the good old days...Like the soda fountain at Big State Drugs, quite the attraction at the show! I love that name!
Bart,
I gotta echo other peoples sentiment---the vintage racers ARE the draw for this show. That is what will always motivate my butt to get up and cross the river every year to check it out!

Thanks Eddy.

The city is ready to start planning next year!
