Art & Inspiration Jalopies! Let's see them.

Mud Run pictures from Gresford, NSW, Australia last weekend. Three Banger jalopies duke it out in the BullPen. The track was wetted right down for slow slithery fun. Pictured are Dougie Bull's 28 with a Briggs and Murray 29 cowl. This bug was the result of an all night thrash. The Castrol drum seat finishes it off The 26 Chev Banger belongs to Damian "Blacky" Black. The 28 in bare metal is JoeloRock'n'Rollo's.
All stock four pot motors et al.
It was major fun and sounded ( and smelled) great.

 

Here's my '27, built as a tribute to the one my neighbor in La Mirada ran at El Mirage in the 50's

 

I am pretty sure that jalopies are OK, the HAMB is supported by the "Jalopy Journal".

I think that there are different ideas of what a jalopy may be. For example to me a jalopy is a beater or a knock about car. Maybe tell us your thoughts on Jalopy as you understand it.

 

So this is where they keep the good stuff!

 

Nope. Sorry.
