    IMG_6183.jpeg I’m making plans be in Indianapolis June 7th and 8th for the custom car revival gathering. My Lincoln might not be ready. I think I might drive my coupe up there just to get it out on the road.

    Anybody else going?

    60 at toms.jpg I've made every one of them. Looking forward to the new hotel this year after the problems at the old one. It is THE must attend show for anyone liking traditional customs.

    How do you decide which one to take Mark? Do you throw the keys in a bowl and fish around and pull one out and that's the one you take?:D

    @Moriarity It's finally "custom" enough for Kevin? :D
    Can't wait to see it in person

    My Impala, the Miss Elegance 55, The Astorian, and the Ron Hing 56 have all already been there... 61ccr.PNG 55ccr2.jpg astorian2.JPG car4.JPG

    even though every time I had asked Kevin about bringing my Corvette, he wrinkled his nose like he didn't want it there... this time he said it was ok. All cars have to be pre approved for entry and there really isn't all that much done to my Corvette...

    I have not had the “keys in the fish bowl” experience. Oh wait I’m thinking of a 60s dinner party.

    I’m guessing there won’t be any Car Culture Deluxe magazine coverage at this event?

    I will be driving my daily up there just to visit. I found this 50 Merc in my town the other day. I’m just itching to buy it and drive it up there. We had a tornado over the weekend and the timing just not right . IMG_6797.jpeg

    I’m planning on going. Just bought this car in the fall and it hasn’t been out to many shows in the recent past that I’m aware of. Built in Detroit in the 50’s. Can’t wait to see all the cool rides!

    No CCR for me this year. Work is crazy and Friday is my Mom's 80th birthday. Just didn't feel right being out of town for that milestone.

    I'll be watching from a far and missing my custom friends.

    yup, your Mom is way more important than any car show....
     
  21. Attending this show is on my bucket list. Is it only painted cars in attendance?

  23. No, there are unfinished cars there usually. Gotta be a traditional custom but doesn't have to be finished.
