    I took some pics at the second lonestar roundup of this 60 chev convertible.
    Does anyone have some updated info on this car? was it ever finished? I had seen it the summer previous to the roundup at a texas heatwave show it had a m***ive C notch, and then at the round up it had the added scallops and silver dash.

    also at that same roundup show there was a studebaker (ithink ) truck flat black, chopped, with a crazy dash... some sort of sheetmetal sculpture that split the interior in half...might have had mid west plates.

    I would like a pic of the dash if anyone has it.

    here is a better shot of the 60.
    are there any sites that might have coverage of that show. the pics on the roundup site, while nice, are a little artsy for my taste...

    Wow, glad to see some 60 chevy fans out there. Seems like this model year gets swept under the carpet...

    I remember that car, but I don't know who owns it or what's been done since. Sorry.

    James King from the Houston area owned it....I'm not sure who it sold to, but I believe he did sell it.

    The Stude truck belongs to Jeff Myers...he is on here, and I think his Hamb name is "finkd."

    Did you check the LSR site, I know they had some previous photos of past years, not sure if they went back that far?

    Funny - you can see the ubiquitous yellow jug of Pennzoil hanging out of the rust hole in the right rear quarter in that blurry second pic... I loved that car.

    I always liked James car. He has a nice vw van now that was at the swap meet area last year at the roundup. That was the first roundup for Danyelle . You can see me carrying her in the picture.

    thanks for the info and shots, you can kind of see the dash in the stude truck in that 3rd pic...
    I only took 5 photos at that show...I wasn't very prepared for the weather, , got cold and ended up doing a quick circuit and taking off.
    there was some great stuff there though, a 34 phaeton that drove up from cali., a real texas barn find hot rod from 1956, I remember seeing the weather checked bias plys and thinking wtf "are these people thinking", didn't know it was fresh out of storage from 43 years- cool flathead speed parts on it.

    Of course It was that year that I moved back to mt, just when the texas scene was starting to get big...
