Well first time Ive done this, so excuse the mediocre photography skills, occasional blurred finger, whacked off fender or bad lighting. All are courtesy of my lack of savy, cell phone camera and rushing pics to avoid including a gawking showgoer.... First up is a shout out to my homies.... Merced Valve Burners, and my good buddy, and my own personal hot rod encyclopedia, Tracy Ledford and his gorgeous coupe....I just cant get enough of this car, and niether could these guys.....(this was a pretty common site, folks were sure impressed) The club display including the "Cotton Chopper" rail and the show board we lettered for Tracy's coupe many many moons ago. More to follow...
2013 AMBR....they did good....oh so very good!!! ....and yup its still there.... A very very very tasty morsel... and.... last but certainly not least... At the last minute we were invited to join the Valve Burners display, but the roadster was in too many pieces on the garage floor...so bummed!!! But, I have made the promise to be there with our roadster next year....guess I better get crackin'!!
great pics..thanks so much. More can be found of the show at http://www.flickr.com/photos/mutantsurfing/sets/72157632773907373/with/8477039861/ GREAT SHOW!!
Great cars and good camera work. Some there that weren't at the Grand Nationals in Pomona. I'm really encouraged that the judging was realistic and awarded the Kelly Brown car the big trophy at Pomona. Brizio completed a fantastic build.
WOW, thanks you guys for the cudos on the pics, certainly unexpected. Great pics in Rons link as well!!! Well here are a few more. And a couple probably a bit OT for us here, but still pretty nice to look at. I have a real soft spot for the late 50s Ramblers and this one was just too cool....I wouldve been perfectly satisfied with some 15" wheels and moon discs on this one though... This one is for my Pops who is finally working on his 36 2dr Flatback since starting the restoration in 1970. Hes a long way from here though.... And an absolute gorgeous green on this Mustang!!! (sorry for the huge pics, I resized them, hope PB updates them soon here)
Hey, Great pics! Thanks for sharing. Would like to know more of what was made in the bed of the Green '29 Ford pick-up. Storage bins? And what's with the red lens up on in there as well? Hmm... well, one too bad is that ill-fitting folding top. Really the material covered rigid-frame removable top is the only choice for an open cab. The square of it sits the overall look up. IMO Thanks again though for letting me look
The first pic is me and Mark Cameron a fellow Satan's Angels member, checking out Tracy's bad *** ride who we awarded our "Hell of a Ride" Trophy to this year.
HAHAHA, that pic was too perfect, it couldnt have been better if we had staged it, I wish I had videoed you guys taking his coupe all in, it was priceless. Here ya go!!!!!! ....I hadnt posted these earlier because they just dont do the color of your coupe justice, but here they are anyhoooo. Thanks guys!!!
Awesome..Thanks for the pics..Tracy's car is bad ***! The Valve Burners have some *****in rides and the coolest members..I see you took the interior pic after someone put his flier on my seat..real cl***y move at an indoor car show..I threw it right in the trash...hopefully it wasnt your flier..lol
Edell, your coupe is *****in! Our engine bays have been blessed by the same hands, so I went looking for it, not knowing exactly what I was looking for, but I got a few good shots. I'll post soon. For the o/p, thanks for posting these pics. ### Kustom Falcon Build Thread: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=734282
Nope thank you for such a great car, and yup Tracys car is out of this world, I personally like it better with the chrome reversed Mercs, but the top hats look very good too (it has a completely different look). I cant wait to get our roadster done and make the Valve Burners proud. Nope I didnt place the flyer, I am the guy in the parking lot who chases the people down to give it back, or collects them all from the cars around me and throws them in the trash....lol I hate that **** anywhere. Wish I wouldve taken more, I am kinda a fan of the pro touring thing, so I have a few of them as well, but too OT. Cant wait for next year.....Thanks Falcon
