Event Coverage Sycamore, IL Turning Back Time Car Show pics

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Goober, Jul 26, 2009.

  1. For a town of 14k, this show just gets better and better. Heard there were over 600 cars by 9:00 a.m. today and shooting for 1k. If you're anywhere in N. IL, WI, IN, IA you need to think about taking this in next year the last full weekend in July.

    Movie with pics of a few of the cars today.

    I got there about 930 and was #629 and got stuck in the back. I was in a little parking lot with not much action.. Oh well it was fun either way!
    And sycamore may only have 14k but Dekalb has a lot more, even if you don't count the college kids.. Draws a good crowd though!

    Thanks man, I really enjoyed that! Didn't have to click through 100+ pics. Just sat back and watched...
     
  8. Nice! Thanks for putting that together.
     
  9. Hi there Goober, great video/photo's, some neat looking rides there. Just one silly question... what is the music in the video ? Kiwi Helrod:cool:
     
  10. It's one of the three YouTube instrumental tracks that matched the video length -- called Legend of 89Ford by Musicshake (which must be some generic music factory because they have a hell of a lot of offerings as YouTube audio). Thought it would be better to have some type of background audio rather than none, especially since it's a nice free option.

  14. Thanks for the feedback.
    Was also so impressed by Zenor's "Space Chimp" that I had to cover it in a short video -- while trying to brush back the crowd around it.

  16. Wow! Very cool shots, and thanks for the nice vid of my coupe.

    The Sycamore show is a great time. Hundreds of nice cars in a very laid-back small town atmosphere.

    hey hey we are at 1:49-1:57, also i see u saved the best for the last
     
  18. Thanks. One car I've been fascinated with the last couple years at this show is the Ward Anderson roadster that I understand was built in the 50s and is just like it came out of a half-century time warp. Very cool! Dig the '51/2 Olds optional steering wheel with the self-winding clock/watch built into the horn ring.
