Page 1. This was my third time to attend this great event, and I must say, the turnout was huge, and it was a blast to see all of this happen again! Great to see friends from the H.A.M.B. as well! My Mexican paper mache' "BLOW FISH" on top of my hat with the mirror in its mouth was a big hit! As much as the cars and all things vintage and mechanical that show up at this event is, its truly a great chance to shoot a lot of random shots of the people that attend. This is a great cross section of people of all ages, enjoying a magnificent event, where nobody is telling you what to do or where to walk or sit! I hope you all enjoy what I captured through the lens of my Nikon D-600. Thanks from Dennis.
Page 10. So, that's a full 10 pages at 30 photos per page, it takes a long time to edit them all, so 300 keepers out of 506 shot, thats not bad at all! The fun thing about doing this type of photography, is the variety of opportunity's to catch random shots of people having a good time at a terrific event, that has a little bit of everything to enjoy, in the realm of motor heads and gear heads, fast cars, loud noise out in the middle of nowhere! Thanks for coming along on this photographically entertaining, journey of fun and noise and smiles! Thanks from Dennis.
Great pics and rides. understand your thread was moved. I have had multiple threads and pics deleted over the years. yes, very hard to "stroll " through all pics and look at each pic to make sure nothing not H.A.M.B. friendly showing. I have deleted excellent pics to try to stay within boundaries. rarely will modify a pic too good to dump.
Yeah, I do my best to try to stay in the guide lines, especially if its an image that I know I want to be seen. But the beauty if you want to call it that, of the off topic forum, is that at least it can be posted, and then a link can be made and shared with individuals. Glad you liked what I posted! Thanks from Dennis.
Hey, Dennis; Near the beginning of the pics, there is a long-nose mustang. Looks su****iously like Gasbar Rhonda's old longnose mustang. Repurposed original ?, recreation ?, tribute/clone ? I see no SOHC Cammer, but just curious. Any info? TIA. Marcus...
Hey Marcus, Well this was my 3rd year to attend this event down at Toutle, and sadly I only personally know about a few cars, purely via the connection to the H.A.M.B. As you can see that blue long nose mustang, I ***ume is from California since its covered with the "FAMOSO" logo's. So the H.A.M.B. detectives will have to chime in on the actual history of that Blue long nose Mustang. Wish I could give you more information on it, but I just don't know a thing about it, other than its fast! Thanks from Dennis.
Hey Marcus, Well the fact that this thread is on the off topic forum, its doubtful that the H.A.M.B. detectives will wander over to take a look! So just for the hell of it, I did a simple web search, and this little video in my opinion pretty much puts to rest that this was the Gas Rhonda original, its more of an original piece of work, Enjoy. Thanks from Dennis.
Well, thanks. . I had heard that FiberGlasTrends(I think they were the ones that did the body???) offered a long-nose, but thought it was shorter than Gas's version. In any case, I doubt many were made, much less run. Too bad, they look good. *Almost* the perfect pony-car(long nose, short body, shorter deck... Oh, big power... ) proportions. . Marcus...
Actually, talking to one of the crew members, that is an original car built in the 60's. The body is factory steel. Didn't catch who built and ran it then though.
There was a local guy around my area who built a beautiful gloss black street legal one years ago. He said he cut up two extra fenders and a hood to lengthen his front clip. So all steel and extremely well done. I think the owner p***ed away as it suddenly disappeared from any shows.
