Here are a few pics from LEAD EAST the giant 50's PARTY, offering more unique events than 15 normal car shows added together. If you dig the good old days of greased hair, tail fins, and 50's rock n' roll, they we got a PARTY for you ... And there is no other event remotely like this on the planet.
i remember seeing that car in primer, i thought it was a buick but you could be right. i think its kind of cool. better that the 49 ford/tbird kit.
I think I took all the same pictures I especially liked Old Skool T with the Side Mount and the center steering headlight. I'll post some of my pics up as soon as I download the camera. Great show with a good mix of cars and a couple that should not have been in there.
yeaaa i was there with my grey and black shoebox with 58 plymouth savoy sidetrim, needle nose bubbles....had a good time many unreal cars...including kustom7777's caddy and the Kopper Kart.
Ok this one has me going in circles. What is this exactly. Carbs and fuel injection? Gutted carbs with only the throttle plates in them? I see wires but where are injectors? Or is it just the angle? What the heck is this!!
Paul Rodriguiz, Great guy!! Spins the best records when hes DJ'n. One of East Providences finest when hes workin JimV
My guess would be F.I. unless the're wired for sound. Here's another set from Paso(remember Paso?)this year,slightly different but still neat.
65 mustang, Yep, you got it figured out. The carbs are just there for the throttle blades. The injectors are under the fuel logs. They are hidden in the pics. I think as time goes on we will see more of this type of deal. Electronic injection works great when it works. For now I'll be stickin' with my trips. Have fun,Smokey
Cool pics thanks! We're there any 59 El Caminos there? I'm thinkin' the new owner drove my old one there and I have seen it in about 2 years.
That right there is funny!!!!! The Crown Vic...... they could always go the "it's got cop tires, cop motor" route!
Nitrofc, Very cool photographs of a very cool event. I have a Lead East Video and watch it often. I give Terry Cook one of the '39 Huston tail lights for the S****e car. I really like the doowop singers at the event......... Cruiser
