Pics from Cincy Street Rods NSRA Appreciation Day

I find this all real ironic because Kartbreaker and I were born and raised in Cincy and just moved away two years ago and there was noone around. The only cool traditional stuff was really only Josh Shaw and Kartbreaker, and they ironicially knew each other and hung out occ***ionally. Just goes to show how the "craze" is really taking over all over. Guess I'm glad to see Cincy starting to grow a lil'.

 

In the early nineties, you could count the rods with Bias wide whites on one hand, with fingers left over. But it wasn't just in Cincy. Rodder's Digest, to my surprise, pictured my car from the '92 and '93 Nats with comments on how tradtional cars looked great, and predicted they would become popular. When I took off on my "tour" in '95, tradtional rods were still few, with the majority of them in California. Those cars were owned by older guys who never saw a reason to change what they liked. It took the younger guys a while to see them, and appreciate the simplicity of design and appearance. Once the magazines began to show them, it caught on, and the rest is history.

Does Bob Oney still have the sweet little 34 3window that he had in about 95? I think he gave 50 bucks or somthing crazy like that for it!

That car had the look.
He was trad when trad wasnt cool....or at least the majority didnt think so!!

Ratster,

I won't be in Knoxville this year. Too much going on. I know a lot of the guys from the club are going down. I know thw T-bird is on the mend and is supposed to be at a show here in Sharonville this weekend. I don't know the whole story but the T-bird had a little crushtamizing.

I will have to get the rest of the details.

 

Erik -I guess I need to get back to Cincy and see what's going on. I could have sworn he told me he sold it at the Middletown Frisch's cruise in the mid 90's. I've been in Floriduh too long - maybe I'm getting CRS. Thanks.

If you get back to Cincy this year let me know. By the way, dad was in the hospital last weekend with an infected gaul bladder. He went in Thursday night and went home Tuesday. They are going to remove the gaul bladder in the next 4 to 6 weeks. He is feeling a little better now.

 

Damn! I grew up in Cincy but moved to Boston about 10 years ago. Things were definitely not as hoppin' back then. Glad to see such an awesome turnout. I go back to visit family pretty often so keep me posted on any cool events if you can.
