Event Coverage +++ LIVE / Autorama - 2011 Great 8 Finalist and WINNER ... Ouch ++++

Don't shoot the messenger on this one .. No comment on the finalist but the Grey Ford Convert should have the field covered by a mile...

 

.................

 

you should post a pic of the tail lights or light

 

I like the Riv, but you're probably right. Thanks for posting; the other thread had me wondering if they were still showing cars on the main floor.

 

... as long as it beats the other plasticy globs in your first post.

Not shooting the messenger, just throwing up on my keyboard a little...

 

That grey ford was a knockout.

 

...

 

Nitro is on the mark. That is one fine Ford. Many mods. Not necessarily my pick, but I'm a peeon.

 

Wow. Is this what the current rod scene looks like? It's all Boyds and Chips fault.

 

The grey Ford looks clean, the others leave me non-plussed

 

Love the Ford......others....BORING

 

i was there yesterday and not one of these impressed me

 

The wheels are ALL TOO BIG on all those cars.

Looks like a damn dance hall floozey convention, goldarnit!

Are the "gold-chainers" winning?

 

I fully agree. I don't care if folks don't like the wheels etc. That car is a knock-out.

 

The 56 Ford is really nice! What the hell is up with that green Chevy Truck....WTF!

 

Al,,,,You done good again,, Great pics. from an excellent messenger. If the negative Alpha Hotels don't like they can go piss up a rope.....

 

That Ford is definetly cool. Whats up with the engine compartment on the Vette? Is there really an engine under all that covering?

 

NITROFC, no diss on you, thanks for the pics.

Those wheels make me think BOYD"S REVENGE FROM THE GRAVE!!!!

I'm goin' to bed.

 

thanks for posting

 

Pretty unimpressive field this year. I agree on the gray Ford, although it did have a few fit issues compared to that brown Chevy. (Just trying to nitpick like you have to to pick a winner).
The green truck I didn't get at all.
Spent more time looking at the Take-Out T and the VooDoo Idol. Cool to see those in person.
Favorite car there; that blue Deuce roadster "32 Zephyr". Haven't seen a pic posted yet.

 

i agree with ohiorev the "32 zephyr" was the best one upstairs

 

I like the Ford vert alot, but... if the O.C.C. fendered truck wins, I will lose all respect for this show.

 

Thanks, Nice Pics. But the selection of contenders dont do a thing for me.

 

X2 Should'nt even be close

 

That piece is proof that style is completely disconnected from the judging process.

 

Lame year for contenders. I guess that makes it a good year to compete. Kinda makes sense, two-three years ago the economy ****ed bad, and thats when these guys would have started these cars. So, the fields a little weak. Time to go downstairs to look at cars!

 

Thanks for the time and effort of posting the photos!

 

X2 The '56 Ford is a stunning car and I don't give a rat's *** if it does have "big" wheels! Hands down, the Ridler winner!

On the other hand, I have not talked to one person - not one SINGLE person that has seen the green truck that can believe it was in the Great 8. Just a friggin' ugly ugly abomination. There, I've said it and feel better now...
