Event Coverage Good-Guys Rhinebeck pictures

John, congrats on the award! Car still looks sweet. What happened? You too good to be my friend? LOL. You disappeared dude.

 

Thanks. ford32deuce.

 

Hey KIRK,
Not to derail this thread, but...

What are the facts on this rumor I heard at Rhinebeck several times over the weekend about GG's actually dropping the Rhinebeck event next year? The only alternative will be your Pocono event in the north east in the fall? I heard several reasons and versions why your dropping Rhinebeck, but usually where there's smoke, there's fire!

Hotel rooms are tough to come by, so any heads up would be great so reservations can be made.

 

Ive heard this to.

 

Yeah, I heard it a lot too. Not true. There were 2009 sign-up sheets there.

 

So we can count on your word that there's no talk at the GG's camp about dropping it...and not have to make alternate reservations and plans for Pocono?

 

don't shake up the establishment , dirty pet****
some NERD wrecked your day
you should have seen the security guard party we threw at the NSRA nats

 

If there has been any, I haven't heard it. I sure don't think it's going anywhere after 17 years.

 

Sorry to put you on the spot, KIRK...there's a lot of us that really enjoy this show. Just like everything else in this world, Rhinebeck is always morphing and changing, but there's still a lot of GREAT hot rods and customs that come.
If anything comes up, please be sure your input to the GG's powers-that-be is positive to keep the show.
Thanks

 

went to goodguys at carlisle in 1994

 

Wow that's nice to say, thank you. You were probly not as bummed as I when I saw it stopped raining. But I had alot fun. Great bunch of poeple up on hot rod hill too.

I agree with you about toughing it out. I also just finished it and I haven't really drivin far in the rain with it either. I just decided to play it safe.

 

I sure will.

 

Ok I guess I over reacted. I will try to never get pissed again..I could only go for one day due to travel for work, so Friday was my day. The fun for me was the drive down anyway. $60 bucks was a little steep for me to only stay for a few hours. I got mad at the show when I should have just shrugged off that woman. I think a day p*** would be nice though..maybe $30, or $35. And sorry for talking **** about your fancy pants Rig. I'm just jelous

 

Cool pics dude, thanks for sharing!

Hey Keith, cool seein you pullin the camper. My Roadster has had the top on twice in the last nine years and all for about 50 miles, lol! My wifes roadster has no top, nor does my Hallocked 29 project... real Hot Rods don't have radials, plastic bodies or Magnum Axles, they have mordrops!

 

Thanks, KIRK.

Haha...I couldn't believe how many of you hard core roadster people I saw out cruisin Friday night in the rain. It didn't stop that big *** grins you had for a second!
Yea, that was the farthest I've towed the camper with the '37 and it rolled with the traffic great all the way out and back!
Me and my wife had a ball camping at the show, so I think we'll be doing it again. I'll tell you, it was a gazillion times better than staying in the Holiday Inn that we used to before the horse people took over!!

 

Well I drove it there last year with no top,and home with no top,and I do have a Mordrop model A axle,so I'm close.

 

first off i wanna say congrats to highboyroadsterboy on the award ! i always look forward to this show ,rain or shine ,their are always a wide ***ortment of good looking cars to checkout . and its always good to see people i dont see often ( keith,brian ,ect - friday was a little ****py ,but sat,sun turned out great , scored a few things at the swap , hungout with some cool people ,had about a dozen black rasberry milkshakes , then headed back to the hotel in hydepark,then to the everready diner for some chow , my girl and i had a great time - i allready got my room for next year -- joe

 

Ya I'm still not holding my breath on the mag thing,plus I dont even care anymore.

 

Hey Joe- I'm still dryin out the floors in my Roadster, glad the one's in Kim's are wood!
Keith that Camper is the bomb, does that make your sled a "trailered car"? lol!

 

Why does it rain every year at Rhinebeck?? Great show and worth the money.

 

Now that's funny ...........

 

Kirk! likes your car.....you DO have a chance
