This show just never lets ya down - what a great gathering of kustom cars, hot rods, and cool people! I was lucky enough to hang out with some good friends throughout the weekend, as well as meet some new ones, something I enjoy very much. Like we always say - It's just as much (if not more!) about the people as it is the cars. When I get home and look back through my photos, I never get as many as I would have liked to. I guess I just spend too much time chatting and hanging out Oh well... Our Friday morning started out with a tour of a very cool shop and barn/parts collection. After that we took a nice guided tour of the Speedway Museum. HAMB member, Jess, set this all up for us and we appreciate it very much! I do have photos of those tours, but you are going to have to wait for another thread to see those. Well, enough of my rambling. Lets get to the photos! What a great way to start the weekend - Airport Drags! I embar***ed myself and smoked my clutch since I swapped in a 5-speed, I definitely need to change the 3.00 gears to 3.70s! Hot-rod Roadster (Gary) kicked my *** in his cool Chevy wagon Uncle John & Gary lining up - John's car is quick! We went to look for a place to eat after the drags. What's with all the restaurants closing early in Salina?! A little fun and dancing while we were figuring out where to eat Malcolm
Saturday show: The legendary Bill Hines chopping a Merc Most of the rest of my photos are of cars - Enjoy! T&A Flathead's coupe - cool Part of the Omaha crew Loved this wagon!
Hub Harness (I believe) Late Saturday night fun - hanging out at the hotel Interesting wedding party attire Well, that's all I have for photos this time. I'll try to get more on the next trip. That shouldn't be a problem - Bonneville & HAMB Drags, here we come! Malcolm
Great pictures! I was planning on being there, had a room and everything. Instead, I put some color on the '39. Probably see you at the Drags, and I look forward to talking with you there. Thanks again for the photo's. J.
Lucky for me you smoked the clutch, or I'd probably be telling everyone you kicked my ***. It was a great weekend no matter how you look at it. Nice pic's, See Ya, Gary
I look forward to meeting you at the Drags - see ya there! It was good to finally meet you! Yes, it WAS a great weekend! It went by way too fast.... unlike me racing you
'54 Ford Gl***top, belongs to Gordy Brown out of (small town north of) SLC, Utah, grille bar is hand-made, primer spots tinted to make it look like it was done back in the late 50's/early '60's. Gordy has a bunch of car, but this one is his fave. Malcom, good to see you again...I wondered what you did (or happened) there at the drags... R-
Hey Malcom, Again it was nice to meet ya. I've enjoyed watching your progress with your mild Kustom. You don't have to have a mega dollar car to be Kool. keep up the good work. Did anyone get a picture of Gordy Brown's '54 Ford Gl***top and Vaughn's '54 at the host hotel. they were parked side by side and it was a kool photo op. Thanks for posting your pics...... Happy Trails, Mick
Great to see you again, Jay! Always a good time hanging out with you and BSing. Thanks for lining up dinner on Saturday night, too! I gotta give Jeff a call right now to make sure he gets his coupe together for Joplin!!
Always a good time with Megan and Denise! See ya in Joplin, Catherine! Dig it! haha... Thanks again for the tours, Jess! I also liked that '32 5-window, very cool car.
