Couple more pics... lots of great history under one roof! If you have a cool survivor and want to show next year, send me a message!

 

Damn! I drove all the way to Detroit from upstate and this looks like it was a better show!

 

Thanks man! I actually heard that quite a bit this weekend, which means a lot to me! It's like the ba*****t at Detroit, but on a smaller scale! Each car is invited and approved to participate, and has to meet our traditional requirements to be accepted. Wheels, tires, engine, paint, lettering etc... We only have so much room for vehicles in the back room, so we curate to what we like, and try to make it like a show you would've seen back in the day! Unfortunately Detroit moved their dates recently, so it conflicts with our show usually. Hope to see ya at the event next year, it's always the first weekend of march! More pics and videos to come! Look up Old_School_Review on instagram for more pics and videos as well!

 

Might have to get ahold of you and see about bringing my Anglia next year. Especially since it’s only 45 mins away and looks like a rad show.

 

I thought the show was really good, nice selection of cars and a lot of history to talk over

 

Couple more pics

 

One of the crowd favorites was the Deuce of Hearts survivor 1932 ford. What a cool hot rod and story! Rich the current owner brought it all the way from Rhode Island!





















Rich won 2 awesome home made awards for the old schoolreview, Coolest Hot Rod and the Slade Customs pick!

 

Another crowd favorite was the original Roung Bros 1949 Anglia from Canada, Unrestored A G***er! What a time capsule! Untouched since the late 60s when it raced at Indy! Complete with Hilbron injected Big Block Chevy, 16 inch cragars and good year blue streaks, and an Art Carr Torqueflite push ****on transmission! Keuth the current caretaker has all the memorabilia for the car including trophies and race jackets! How cool is that!?

 

The original Peter's and Parker Fiat that raced at Niagara back in the day was recently restored and debuted at this years show! It was definitely a crowd favorite! Matt did all the word himself including paint!

 

Some pics of the amazing home made awards for the show participants!

 

Mike's oldsmobile powered Hot Rod Coupe was definitely a crowd pleaser!

 

How about a couple awesome 4 bangers from the show!

Pats awesome roadster with a Red's Header and a zephyr dual carb intake!





Marcia's Model B banger powered jalopy! She beats on this thing at all kinds of vintage races!

 

Scott brought out his dad's killer survivor Hemi powered AA/Altered ! So much cool history with this car! Complete with magnesium spindle mounts and original daisies!
