Goodguys West Coast Nats ***PICS***

Here you go John, and yes, it was a really, really nice car, won an award too...





Oh.and then there was.................

THIS!!!!

 

Excellent pics. Thanks for sharing.

 

Great pics Dave!

You just had to scare me with that Poor Ole F1 again didn't you? LOL.

Thanks for the event coverage!

 

Sorry Renee....I just had to post it........Just to show some folk have NO taste at all!!

 

there was this 50 chevy 3100 there, with a 61 chrysler dash, hands down my favorite car at the show, I've never seen a better looking instrument cluster.

 

As usual, great pix Dave!! Been thinking of you guys since I've been here. Say "Hi" to everyone for me. AL

Hey Al!!

How's Reno?

Will say Hi to the mob for you.

Take care, you gonna be at Billetproof?

 

Great pics. Helps us on the other side to keep up with some of the better cars instead of getting stuck with only what is printed in the magazines. Well, they were mostly great pics, but that F1, it leaves you wondering what they were thinking.

is this a cornbinder grille? WTF?

 

That car had some amazing details and some ugly ones too. Moal's recent stuff just doesn't do it for me. The lines just don't flow. On the other hand, the craftsmanship can't be beat.

 

The grill is hand made but modeled after a Miller grill.

It was a close call in the BAD taste department, but that was the one I decided to photograph for the 'How NOT to build a car' award, the other contender was a Packard, with B*llet 20" rims, and candy PINK fenders while the rest of the car was blue...and I am telliing the truth....it was HIDEOUS!!

 

Here's a shot of it.

I've got a few pics here: http://mikejang.com/pleasanton_aug_2005.html

 

Here are some more. I tried not to post any that others already had.

Wednesday's trip to Sacramento Vintage Ford


Hell yeah...







Stay tuned...I have a bunch more.

 

Can you say...BARN FIND?




12 cylinder Lincoln flattie, shipped from Australia in early summer and then driven over 6800 in the US including Bonneville. He shipped it here and met it on the dock, hopped in and started driving. Too many goofy "rat rod fake patina" details fo me but that mill deserves a shrine!

 

Winner of the Stroker McGurk award


Real or fake salt job...I couldn't tell.




I'm in love.

 

Damn!


Scotty's bad ride


As seen on a Hudson pickup


Alex's Chevy is one of the meanest cusoms around!

 

Borderline traditional but cool.


I wish I'd host a better pic of this one...it's KILLER!!!


I guess I sort of did...


Did anyone else notice how close they came to perfection with this car? The outside was right on the ****ing money and then they got retarded and put a digital insert in the '40 dash...WTF?!?!?

 

Nice shots Kirk, I missed the cool surfer ordiment (I think that was on Flathead bob's 30 woodie ??). Seen you rolling in that cool model A coupe.. it just screams hotrod


That ugly F1 with the modern stuff was my "What Where They Thinking" shot and since I could not remember if I took a pic of it, I shot it again.

 

Here's the mill in the green coupe that everone is digging.


**** yeah...Vic Edelbrock signing my book!

 

that purple coupe is *****in, seen it rolling thru the fairgrounds and stopped him to take a pic. went looking and did not see it again.

I heard the lincoln powered ride is owned by the guy who brought over the twin blown T and the allison powered 55 chevy (with the war plane look).

 

That's the guy.

 

=============\

More if ya got 'em ! .

Thanks for what you did post, great taste.

I'll take one of the surfer mascots in "female" please....

The barn find looking roadster is awesome.

The salt sprayed 34 is way cool.

Wish Vic had my money and I had his, I'd buy everybody I know a steel deuce body.

B.

 

I was going to get a Vic signed book but got busy and forgot.. Damn

ya Kirk, any more cool shots.

 

Well I took about 1100 photos but here's the rest of what I have web-ready. Mostly artsy ****.

Another surfer




This thing was bad*** all the way around

 

What's this off of? I want one.




Ray's *****in' Chevy is a staple at every NorCal event.

 

I know it was already posted, but Russ' touring is at the top of my list for this year's favs.







That's it for now.
