Event Coverage Myrtle Beach Run to the Sun 2011 (add here)

I went to the show with my friend (another HAMBer) in his 63 Impala, it was a great time, my goal to drive my 51 Merc next year! I took a lot of photos of the details on some of the Mercs there, under the hood stuff.

 

Looks like a nice show. I had a friend's wedding this weekend, otherwise I'd have gone.

The green merc on greener wire wheels belongs to a local cat with a great merc collection, including a mint woodie. I used to drop by his garage with my 51 back in the nineties and he'd roll his eyes at my sedan

Comet I'm glad your cars are coming to sc, can't wait to see 'em.

I'll try to make this one next year.

 

Love the color combo. Is this a HAMBERs car?

 

I had a great time and really enjoyed the show... I don't really care what people like 49ratfink think of my car! When you pay for anything on it, then you can tell me what it should look like. I don't let haters get me down. Great show and I plan to be back next year. Thanks for the photos.

 

I talked to him for a bit at the show and he brought the woodie to were I used to work a while back, nice fella.

 

That 37 Ford with the pick up bed is "interesting"...

 

Ron,that's a 37 Chevy and yeah It's different. HRP

 

Now that's a beautiful car!!! Wow!

 

I heard about that wreck today it was a 39 ford sedan, the guys name is Ron Barfield out of Piedmont SC he and his wife were in hospital I hear they will be ok but the car was a total loss. Said he ran up on slow traffic corrected twice and flipped the car the second correction was to keep from hitting his brothers rod who was traveling with him

 

glad to hear they are going to be ok

 

Any pic.s of the car before?

 

Man I hate to hear this,,I heard about the accident but didn't know who it was,,I know Larry Barfield and would appreciate any further updates.

This is not his car but his car is a yellow 4 door like this. HRP

 

I just got word from Ken Emory that Larry and Diane Barfield are out of the hospital and recuperating at home,,no broken bones just cuts,scrapes and a lot of bruises. HRP

 

Good to hear they are doing Ok ....The car can be replaced but they can't!! I just got home from Myrtle Beach what a Great Show the Pee Dee Guys put on..

 

My brother and I were there all 3 days.
Got there before daylight the first day to hit swap meet.You had to jump when they uncovered their area or unloaded trailer to get best deals.
I was lucky,my brother spotted one just as he got there.I scored a pair of new coilovers with rebound adjustments and a say "why and" weiand tunnel ram from him at very cheap prices.
The shocks were bought for his truck project but he stayed with the leaf springs.
The shocks were too good of a deal to turn down and I just had to have the tunnel ram at the deal he offered.You know how it is.
Had a very good time all 3 days and got to see plenty of burnouts on ocean blvd.Some of the cars were running slicks.Wild time.
