Andy Brizio's photo vault, you asked for it

Awesome, thanks for sharing!

 

Wow Terri , I got to see them at last , just boxes the other night. That would be the start of a Book I would hope , put me down for a copy as soon as they are printed. See you soon at LARS I hope.

Thanks for taking the time to share your excellent family album with us

 

Terry,
Was that C-Cab sold to John Bonham of Led Zepplin or did he just drive it in the Song Remains the Same documentry?
I always wondered about that, and where it is now. I remember seing it when I was a kid at the Roadster Round-Up in my home town Visalia, CA. in the early 70's.
Thanks

 

Really great pictures,.. thanks for posting them.

 

Sanford , the Instant T was owned by John Bonham then a friend of mine in England bought it , he sold it to a Ford Dealership in Birmingham England. He then bought it back did a light resto & sold it again, It remains in England. Great Iconic Car & still liiks the same , without the blower though.

 

WOW!! thanks for sharing these with us..Amazing shots!!

Seems like a popular place

 

Thanks Limey Steve, I thought that that was it! John Bonham was not only the greatest Rock Drummer he was a Hot Rodder too! He drives a Dragster in the Video clip too!

 

Holy Crap.... seriously... those were great. The serious of girl ones. Shit that was awesome. Thanks!

 

Yep that would be my sister in the back of the T , they actually used to ride my brother and her back there, and I am pretty sure I was in the front with Mom & Dad...no seatbelt laws back then, Thanks

 

This will be my new screensaver assortment. Thanks for the posting effort.

 

Check this thread out from last year ; Growing up Brizio - sorta off topic

and look at reply number 84 , in the thread

 

Alan Spittle (Al'sCDT ) was indeed the previous owner of the Instant T Lucky Guy !!

Hi Al

 

How did I miss this. Thank you so much for posting! I love this!

 

Hey There All
Thank you so much for your kind words I am glad you all like the photos, I guess I will have to take a ride back up to see my parents and see what else I can find to share.

And just so you guys know my Mom & Dad have been reading all the replys on here and are touched and surprised with all the attention

Thank You again
Terri

 

No need to thank us Terri...It is a pleasure to have you and your family here. Thanks to you for sharing these pics and history. Great stuff...

 

Hi Steve,
I'll be talking to you soon need some bits

 

I dropped in on my last trip to the US but got there just as the shop was closing up (spent too long chatting to Steve Coonan at TRJ). Guy that answered the door didn't seem too keen on letting me come in or mildly interested in the fact I'd travelled half way across the world.

I guess I'll just have to visit next time.

Thanks for sharing these great pics, Terri.

Terri------Remember this dusty old place?-----Don

 

Cool pictures, takes me back...........

 

awesome pictures. thank you for sharing. i was born 15-20 years after most of these pictures were taken, you dont know what it means to me to be able to see some true roots of hot rodding

 

im sure that sat in a vw dealerships window in the late 70s early 80s,in walton on thames england,
great old pics thanks for sharing

 

So RAD! This is why the HAMB is so awesome.

 

Here's Afew For Ya Terri.Iam Sure You Have These.

 

Terri, Thanks for sharing the family photos. Too cool!!!

 

Hi
I spoke to my Dad and he said that Ron Jones painted Bud Bryan's 29, he was a neighbor of Buds. Take Care Terri

 

That is cool. I knew exactly where that was when I saw the Tower Records sign and parking lot.That was still there 'till Tower folded a few years ago. God I miss Tower Records

 

ts3x65mph...Really dig the Organ Grinders photo. If you look closely you'll notice that everyone's shirt says 'Sam' on it. Why? Well, the story I got from Andy, Bruno Gianoli & Jim McLennan at one of Roy's Open Houses (back when he was on Wattis Way) was that if you were under the rail and you needed something all you could see was shoes so you didn't know who, exactly, was close by. What to do? Just yell 'Sam'! Instant aid. Even if it isn't true...I love that story.

 

Nice goin', Terri, thanks for sharing! So...when is the next Andy's Picnic?

Jim

 

Good God, these are great!
Thanks for taking the time to post.
