2010 Grand National Roadster Show - HISTORIC RACE CAR BUILDING !

Humm ..Looks like I might be making the trip with a something to show

 

Axle - Just found this! Killer idea! Best of luck to you. I might have to come down there this year...

 

Thank you. Just met with the Shroeders of Shroeder steering & components in Burbank , he's hooking us up with many guys who own early board track race cars as well as indy and midgets. Cool stuff is happening lately

 

Bringing this back on top.

 

Well, C'mon down !

 

UPDATE: fantastic car applications are coming in.

What we are still looking for:


Early 60's mopar drag racer A/FX or Super Stock

Early 60's ( 1961-1963 ) 409 Impala drag racer A/FX or Super Stock

A couple of jalopy racers

Teens or Twenties board track racers or roundy round race cars

a few more 30's to early 50's Indy cars and midgets.

Any help in this would be great. Thanks so much

 

Making arrangements this weekend for sure. I found a really cheap ticket and I hope it there tonight.

The board track cars would be awesome to see!

 

Two recent additions

 

Axle,

Swing over to www.vanderbiltcupraces.com and check out Howard Kroplick's 1909 ALCO racer. This car competed in two Indy 500's and later the Vanderbilt Cup. Howard is a great guy who loves nothing more than driving and sharing the car's history with anyone who's interested.

Leave Howard a message and see what happens. Just a thought.

Kurtis.

 

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.

 

Very cool additions, I'd really dig seeing both those famous and influential cars "in the steel"!

 

More cars added. These cars are owned by Adail Gayhart . The orange and white Opperman car is one of the most important of the era (early 70’s), The blue is also significant, and the early track roadster is considered by many to be the most authentic of the survived roadsters active today.

 

Wow Axle those vintage sprints are cool...
can't believe I'm calling something from the '70s vintage...
this show is going to be great..
JimB.
PS Tracy and I are making some cool plans...

 

More cars added. These are from the Tom McIntyre collection.

 

I've got my plane tickets and now I just need to find rides everywhere!!! I'm coming though!!!

Another from Tom McIntyre. This is the real deal !

 

Hamber bobwop owns a 63 409 Superstock car....you might give him a try if your still looking for one.

axle ...

I'm really glad Tom is going to share some of his wonderful collection @ the 2010 GNRS.

I don't mean to "look a gift horse in the mouth" ... and I know he already showed it @ the '07 GNRS ... but any chance he'll be bringing the famous Williams Bros. B'ville Roadster?

 

Hemi32, I know, its a great car but it was in attendance 2 years ago, and we're already getting 5-6 cars from him. We'll see.
In the mean time, here's more confirmed !

 

Here's some 60's Drag stuff confirmed. Enjoy

 

The Anderson Brothers Pontiac Tempests

 

Axel..

I haven't talked to the big guy yet but. The office hottie "Pinky" said our paperwork is in your hands.

 

Tumbleweed garage, both of Gene's applications came in. We'll be contacting you guys very soon . Thanks

Hey Axle what about some of the transporters??? Im thinkin like the MOON rig for one,I saw it on here a year or so ago someone was restoring it

 

Funny you should ask Meatball,

We've got Don Orosco's recently restored ultra rare All American F1 Scarab Transporter along with two fully restored F1 race cars that will be parked on top of and next to the Transporter!

 

How 'bout an authentic 1953 Ford convertible Indy Pace Car ?
