Event Coverage Photos from the 2013 Portland Roadster show

We made it into the Roadster Show yesterday after having to ride the shuttle bus from the horse track. Here are a few of the photos I took of HAMB Friendly or almost HAMB friendly cars and I'll post a link to the album they are in which contains not in the Hamb Friendly cars and trucks along with the ones I posted.

This Merc flat spun my wheels and I could sure use the color code for the paint on it.




Trailer security concept with the prettiest "model" in the house.




Would make a nice mild custom

 

The Pinstripers hard at work

 

Where Corvette 327's actually come from.

 

It has a Corvette 283 in it. No Really it does.





Scooters were good for opening up the area so I could take photos.

She was pointing out the spots that he needed to clean on it.

 

Edsel Custom









The place was packed with pinup gals of all ages.




complete with chrome tow bar arms.







What do you do with a huge old truck? Build a cool house on it.

 

Wonder how many young rodders have asked if she would be their grandma?

 

More to come, Check out time came at the motel with the high speed internet and after spending my way up the Washington side of the Columbia river with stops at the Pendleton factory store in Washougal and Maryhill Winery I'm sitting in Windy Ridge Tavern in old down town Goldendale having an Irish Death brew and a great Chili burger. If you are ever running up US 97 this is a great stopping place in Goldendale.

 

Some nice rides. Look forward to the remainder. Thanks for taking the time.....

 

Since this is the first PRS I've missed in years, I thank you for posting the pic,s. I'm getting old and lazy!

 

The chop on the black '36 3w is perfect. Looks like a great show!!

Made it home. There may be doubles due to Photobucket shuffling the photos around.





















Stuck back in the bat cave where it was so dark you couldn't tell what color the car was without a flashlight.

 

Metalflake lots of metalflake

 

I just got home from Portland. great show. that Merc was nice, would not mind the paint code either...

 

Mr Model T got an upgrade on where the car got put.
























When I was 15 I bought a set of bongos In Tijuana for 2.00 to put in the back seat of a car I hadn't bought yet. Still have them stashed.

 

Was the Ron Dun car always found? Why do I not remember ever hearing about it besides from back in the day. So rad!!!



Second, what the hell is this?

 

Oh and Bill Peterson Roadster rules.

 

This color is really growing on me for my Model A

Not just for the Trad car only brigade though so no whining if you see something that doesn't appeal to you. I took 500 photos at the show and posted 458 in the album. I tried to build the album with a good look at the whole show minus the freak cars.

 

Wow! What a show... Thanks for posting the great pics. The color on the Merc.. I am about to paint my car that color. Google '48-'50 Volkswagon Bordueax Red. That is the closest I could find to that color.

 

Great shots, thanks for posting. We love Goldendale, when we lived near Puyallup and needed a sun break we used to go over there for a few days. Beautiful country.
