Event Coverage LA ROADSTER SHOW as seen by ACME SPEED SHOP

Our friend Ben D.

 

Sure like swap meets. A rain shower too I guess. Thanks I'll have another look later.

 

It was good meeting you yesterday.

 

What a great day with an overwhelming amount of "stuff" to look at! Good seeeing you buddy!

 

Thanx for the pics!

 

Fantastic stuff.... am jealous. Have to work. Guys coming to get trailers for their fathers day gifts. Then... time to deplete some PBR

 

Looks like a great time.... makes me jealous I hope to make it out there in the next couple of years........

 

Good to meet you and da misses yesterday. As usual you had lots of cool stuff at your booth. A great show.

 

Thanks for the photos. I did not walk the whole swap meet but did see some of the nice stuff you had. Here are a few more photos to add.

The dragsters were fired up all day on Sat.

The Vicky was an old drag car in the 60's and was only $65K

The finished cars were really nice in the preferred parking area.

I think this is the largest LARS I have ever seen and I have been going for over 30 years. The swap meet was huge and filled with good stuff.

 

CAMP ACME

 

Ryan,
It already sold to another friend. I asked him if he would sell it to you. We shall see what he says....

 

ACME fans start young....

 

It was nice meeting you on Sat. you guys were busy.

Here was my end of the night........I didn't check this out when I bought the car over 4 years ago, stainless bolts don't belong holding side a load . Alternator bolt broke, coasted backwards down the ramp, unbolted a lower fender bolt, installed the alt again and I was on my way.

I love this swapmeet, great people, great cars and great stuff. I found a roper whitney press punch for $35 !!!!! and more parts for the '54 and '36 pretty cheap........and the cookies went quick too.

Thanks to all I met and talked too...........

 

Thanks for the pics John!

 

Hey Dan, it was a great time....enjoyed talking to you....good score on the Whitney....Mike

 

I looked at both of these while in line to get in Thursday night. I wanted to ask the owner about them but he was asleep in the cab of his truck. I never did make it back to see him once the weekend got started....someone on here must know somthing cause those two cars were getting a lot of attention.

 

Sorry but that is the only one I had.

 

great shots,thanx!

 

As always, Great pics john, happy fathers day.

 

Thank for the cookies...the girls loved them.

If my memory is correct the 5 window was a very nice body and marked $24,000 and I didn't notice any garnish mouldings on it. The 2 door was $27,000 I think and it was a nice complete car too.
