Event Coverage Oilers CC Present: "Race of Gentlemen"

Not gonna make this one, too much left to do, not enough contents in the piggy, not enough hrs in the day... Gonna try to show up and help recycle some beer though!

 

I HOPE TO HAVE US WELL REPRESENTED MARK! The SCS should be ready with the new banger!

 

does this mean we are going to be able to re enter our cars as they were in the previous race ? cause im to go.

 

Hey Stan, what's up with selling the SCS, I just saw the add in the classifieds? Prying minds want to know.

 

I have a banger built in the late 50's for the salt flats that was never run. I want to find a Model A with a Rumble seat to put it in and run at the Race of Gentlemen. I have a Burns intake with a pair of 81's & a dual exhaust to mount on the B engine. All ready to go but I need the right platform for me.

I am hoping to be able to pull a trade or a quick sale and purchase.

 

Who all out there is building a cool racer for this years event lets see them..they better be cooler than the past years cars..good luck with your builds.

I love that little Roadster, what brand and size are those Slicks?

 

Muttley, Those look like Towel City units!

 

thanks Mutt! ha... those are towel city. he called it an asfalt/dirt special. hahahaha. I ran his pie crusts on the comet for a season, and they seemed to hold up.

Building this for the race its getting there

 

DieselBronco,

That T roadster is sweet! Got a build thread?, wanna see more!

 

Hey Guys, have a deal pending on the Silver City Special.

Now I really need to get it into high gear. Looking for a Model A Roadster prefer rumble seat that I can jam the B Banger and trans I have sitting on a pallet and get it ready for the RoG. Could be very complete roller or an running/driving older restoration ready for a transplant.

Somebody has to know somebody!

Got a few leads in "Wanted" but though I try here as well.

Thanks for your help!

 

Thanks no build thread yet soon

 

Just got this, super cool. Check it out

pretty cool ..

 

Me and my 39 Deluxe might be with Andy for the May 4'th date on this one...we'll see ( i know its a small block, but its an early one with some rare stuff on it, its backed by a top loader)

 

I got the exhaust almost done. Intake from WAC Custom looks great. I got a few suprises lined up......

 

Lookin sharp TJ!

 

Way cool TJ!

 

Just put my poster in a cheap Wal-Mart poster frame.. Now I just gotta get Mel to sign it before the fame sets in!! haha!

 

^^^Are any of these posters still available??

 

That Poster is AWESOME! Is that Mel's handywork? First Class!

 

I bought it at the show.

 

Earlier in the thread, Mel mentioned the possibility of doing a ROG here in good old Texas. What's the story on that? I really hope it does happen..

I'm really looking for an excuse to go see the ocean, but seeing jalopies at the same time I see the ocean is way better.

 

I really like this! Very cool idea with the pipes. Look forward to seeing this in person in October.
