Great photos. I was at the show and really enjoyed the cars this year.

 

What a killer shot!

 

Great photos as usual, thanks Tom.....Any more of the Prufer cars?

 

Thanks for the great pics Tom, looking forward to many more. I sure would like to be walking around the outside show today instead of freezing my *** off, in the house!

I am totally digging this track roadster, anyone got details?

 

Im pretty sure this one was there last year as well. It had 5 spokes then.

Enjoying the heck out of your pictures Tom..............thanks.

 

Thanks for posting...Great Shots!

 

Thanks for posting, very good pictures

 

Great pics Tom. Sorry I missed you; had to get back to NorCal this morning. That was quite a show!

 

A great batch of photos as we can always expect from you, thanks for sharing.

 

I do have a front view. It's a '38. It may be a while before I get to it, but be patient, I'll get it on. I have a lot of

 

X3! We did not always have the money to finish our cars to Hot Rod standards, but rust? Never! We at least tried to make them look as good as we could afford.

 

Great bunch of photos, thanks for taking the time to post them...haven't been since '66 when it was in Oakland...some really great cars this time.

 

WRONG !!! I know the owner and builders. This is an original Henry Ford body and original frame. There is not a single reproduction part on the car. Everything on the car is pre 1948. Not an easy car to build. The distributor, coils and wires are super rare as is the intake manifold. Even the headlights are an oddball size, super rare, have a two light reflector. SW tach drive, pre war velocity stacks, etc etc
Do a complete study of the car before you make a stupid judgement.

 

Thanks for the great photos. It must be nice to be there without the crowds. Sometimes I would have to wait for five or six minutes to get a clear shot of a car. It sure was crowded today.

 

Tom Branch's Perfect Deuce.





Although distorted, this shot through my way-wide fisheye lens illustrates the engineering and complexity of modern land speed cars, shown this year as the Special Exhibit.
