a few others....

 

some more

 

Isn't the first roadster (the blue one) Mike Bishop's old car from the "How to Build a Traditional Ford Hot Rod" book?

Frank

 

that'd be the one

we followed it for a few miles on the way to the show
on I5 in the rain

looks good even with all the miles on it
testament to the builders

 

thanks for the pics, i really like the 33/34 fendered sedan... would there be a front shot of it?

 

Sorry I missed it. Woulda loved to see the Bishop/Tardel roadster. Was the turnout hampered by the weather?

 

Any more pics of that cowl mounted flathead model A? Awesome.

 

Ya meee tooo ..I had to mop up after the rain and get ready for a concrete pour set for monday

 

as far as the turnout I would say at least double what was there last year.....more vendors etc.....in fact I do believe they will have to open up more area next year if it keeps growing .



this is the only other pic I took of the coupe...there should be plenty others with pics to post , maybe some one will have some better shots

 

That is badass, thanks for posting.

 

That would be true Kevin. It's quite a sight watching him - shift, steer and brake. And only rear brakes!

 

Here are some pics I shot.

 

More pics.

 

And some more until tomorrow. Here is a pic of Kmembers truck on its first outing.

 

Can´t believe it was raining there! Looks like good time like always, keep the photos coming. I want see them all!

 

great shots guys. love the cammer in the FED. thanks again Geoff aka whodaky

That's incrediable, those guys are wearing coats. It was still 88 here yesterday.

 

aside from the cold, it was a great turnout..the WWII plane fly-by was killer...

We had a great time! Thanks to FEDER for the 30 lb salmon, that we fed about 40 people. Wife was cookin steady for a couple hours! But the after party at F-HEADS (Bruce) was the Hi Lite of the day and nite! Good on K-MEMBER....the cam wasn't broke in at 9am and he showed up at noon!!! Thanks Cody (HOTRODRUBBER) for helpin K-MEMBER all day!!......OLDBEET and Cindy!!!

 

In the back left of this image, is that the Eagle Electric digger of the K.A.R.S Racing Team?

I don't know of any other rails with a unique chute pack body like that.

It had a one page write up in the September of '67 issue of Hot Rod.

That would be cool if they brought it back...

Thanks...

 

Anybody find my cell phone? Lost in the drunkin stuper!!......OLDBEET

Had a great time at the track. Saw some new stuff, that altered wheelbased Rambler was pretty wild. Thats another one of Richards creations. Hes got all the altered wheelbased Dodges with Injected hemis in em. Hotrod mag did an article on Him with the 64 Fairlane. Lots of nice cars parked on the grass. Dont have any pics. Thanks to Bruce and His Chicken the after party was great. Good to see everyon again. FEDER

 

Here are a few pictures of it from the Hot-Rod-A-Rama.

 

The maiden voyage went off good without a hitch, but I wish I had better oil pressure and the motor would quit knocking.
And Rolf gongrats on winning best "RAT ROD" hehe that was funny, if thats a rat rod, I'm a monkeys unkl!
See ya all in a few weeks for the "Wolrd famous SWINDLERS" poker run, that is if my motor holds together.
