Here are some more pictures. Just making my way over the Delaware Memorial Bridge. Got to Harve de Grace and met up with the cars which cruised up from Baltimore. A big thanks to Curt 6 for suggesting I meet up here on the way from NJ. We were parked by the Amtrak N.E. Corridor bridge going over the Susquehanna River. Very cool when a train went by. I was fortunate to be behind this Willys part of the way headed back to Baltimore on 95. The car sounded great when he tromped on it getting on 695.
Made it to the hotel in Towson. Luckily, I met Seadog in the parking garage and he had directions to Pimlico, so I was happy to follow. Thanks Sea Dog! Good idea to cover the dirt entryway. Made it to the track.
Thanks for sharing. And thanks for taking us along on the road trip and cruise. It's great to see that everyone posting photos shows a few shots of cars the other guys didn't show too.
On to Saturday... Had a 348. Photo op with a pedigreed Merc. Leaving Pimlico Saturday evening (sigh). Got to follow some cool cars for a few minutes as the trip home began, but they exited for other places early on. Overall, a cl*** event. It's always good to see cars in real life after seeing them in pictures on the HAMB. Met some new people and was good to catch up with others I had met before.
What a great bunch of photos. Some quality cars. Thanks for sharing with us poor folk that could not attend. Later, ****
Is that the old Curly Tremaine Merc you parked next to? Damn, it was one of my first inspirations, when they did a chop on that car in R&C(?). Way back in the late 70's.I remember seeing it for sale at Carlisle a while ago!
Murph, I didn't know you had a '46. I thought I took a shot of a maroon one (if that was yours), but I must not have when I checked back now.
Here is the build thread of the Willys. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=786130 We have enjoyed taking it around and yes, driving the car a ton this year. We put over 200+ miles in Baltimore last weekend and did the tour. We also participated in the Hot Rod of the Year event in Indy this year (which more pics are posted on this site as well of this event). We drove it over 200 miles that day and a lot in the rain as well. The rain, of course, was not fun driving with slicks, etc. No one can say that it just comes on and off the trailer. It is driven and for those that were following us at any of these events, knows what it sounds like and it we will get on it down the road. The car won a Street Rodder Top 10 Pick at Columbus Goodguys. Shades of the Past Top 25 Pick and chosen to be on their shirts next year. Indy Goodguys "Period Perfect" pick
The place was full of top notch iron!! Did you happen to get any shots of the trucks there that Stillwater garage GMC was to cool...
