Post your L'ville Stories and Pics here

I like the gold pickup hi boy. Any more pics???

 

Nitro, I just noticed you took a shot of my Sedan with the Forsale sign in it.. Did not think anyone would see it where it was hidden..

Jeem.. I have a few more angles just for you..

 

No worries. Now I have a legit reason to get another snapshot with ya. Of course, we'll take one with my camera as well, just as backup !!

Right now, I'm in Ann Arbor every Tuesday and Wednesday. I'll soon be coming up for longer stretches more towards Plymouth and Livoina.

Even if no car stuff, maybe a snack and chat?

In any case, I am really looking forward to seeing you, and maybe some other HAMBers again.

Hey there where at in A2? I live in Ypsi and work in Saline afternoons. My bud retired and moved back down to Ky in Grand Rivers near Paducah. Joe

 

Hoboy,

I work on Woodridge Ave and Green Road. I also sometimes work over in Plymouth at our prototype shop.

I know Grand Rivers well. The ex is from Paducah.

Give me a shout about any happenings coming up.

Thanks! Is it just me? Is it too "street rod" for folks here?! Whutever the case, I LIKE it!

 

hey Jeem that truck belongs to skipstitch's Mom. his dad just fininished it the day before Goodguys Columbus. Street Rod Builder shot it for a feature on Saturday. You can see more pics on Shawn's web site. www.applemaninteriors.com

 

That truck doesn't need a label. Bob Appelman is a true hotrodder and hotrod builder evident of his other cars and the cars his son Shawn(are very own Skipstich) builds.

 

its a bitchin truck..

 

i say the gold truck is a hot rod. paint and wheels don't keep a hot rod from being a hot rod.

anyone not what grill shell and grill the model A roadster with the mexican blanket,www,and wires was?

 

I was thinking a terraplane grill shortened up ????

 

i'm not thinking terraplane but i could be wrong.It looks like a late thirties chevy shell to me but i'm unsure.I really like the look,wouldn't mind doing something along those lines for my A.

 

ya I went back and looked at it. not a terraplane but you may be right..

 

pretty sure the grille on the model a roadster is a 37 chevy cut down.

It's a 38 Chevy hood/grille(I know the builder) Shawn told me he originally wanted a 38 Ford grille/hood, but the Chevy piece just happened......
Sometimes ya gotta go with what's available

 

I was told the brunette has two kids, and the blonde has one. Who would have thought?

 

Finally!

Heres just a few. I have 70 on my photobucket site. Here

I forgot a good one.

 

What did your 32 sedan and 29sedanman car weigh in at. My 29 sedan came in at 2526 full of gas (1174 front and 1352 rear)

thanks for the pics. Seen the green truck but never got a pic of it

 

My car wieghed in at 2491 full of gas (1132 front and 1359 rear)

So Boones, how did you like the Street Rod Nationals?

 

Nick it was fun and a great chance to met alot of new folks. , not an event I have to attend each year but a good one. To be honest, I like more then just pre '48 cars. its why I really prefer GG events (thou the entry price was pretty cheap at this show). I really like the huge vendor area. I saw way to many 32 that were basically the same as well as 40 fords.. (I would own either don;t get me wrong). but I really dig 50/60's ride (actually anything done cool up to modern rides).... I will attend again I am sure..

 

1074 front
1352 rear
2426 total

This was with more than a half tank, medium size cooler and a car seat in the back.

Great pictures Nick!

 

This picture Nick put up of our two cars together has got me thinking.

Does my car need a little more rake to it. Maybe a 1/2 or 3/4" higher in the rear? Let me know what you think.

 

...yep, now that you mention it...about an inch and a half higher oughta do it...

 

I think I will have to work on this a little bit. Thanks Larry!

 

I'd kill for that Austin.

Wouldn't mind if the girls came along with the deal, too.
