Hot Rods Pre-49 Gathering at Arnie Chupp's Place Today 2024

My old friend Arnie Chupp held a gathering for pre-49 Hot Rods and Trucks today. It was well attended, I didn't get a count on the cars, but it must have been in the neighborhood of 40. I saw people I hadn't seen for some time, and I would like to thank Arnie and his wife Sharon for putting on a great gathering at their wonderful place, along with the hamburgers and hotdogs they provided. So here are my marginal photos. There were a few HAMBers present.

Thanks for the pictures.

 

Thanks for the "marginal" photos! What a nice turnout and don't think you could have a better setting. That chopped 32 with 348/409, stellar!

 

Thanks for the pics Marty! I was too busy and only got a few myself.

 

Thanks @Marty Strode ! I saw a few cars I know. @saltracer219 was that your rig I spotted?
I would have loved to have attended.
I rarely attend a car event that is worth dragging my SLR with me. That looked like one of them.

 

Marty, Thank You.
A great selection of "The right stuff"

 

Now that is a collection of Hot Rods!

 

Thanks for the pictures.

 

Well done, Marty! Very well done.

 

Thanks for posting Marty! Pretty good turn out!

 

Yup, I was fortunate enough to be invited, took my Son with me. Thanks again Arnie it was a real good time!

 

These are the best kinds of get-togethers. Informal.
Old cars, old friends.
Thanks for posting!

 

Cool - Thanks

 

John, the bare metal 32 belonged to master car builder Dale Withers, who we lost a while back, and it is a 409. Gene Baxter, one of Dale's best friends owns it now.

 

Gary, good to see you and Mark ! BTW, your modified was the best car there !

 

Thanks for the great pictures Marty, really nice event and great you were able to be there.

 

Dan, thanks to Arnie and you for putting up with me.

Thanks Marty, you know that I am having a whole lot of fun with it!

 

All Cool Stuff Marty !!..... Recognized a few friends in your pics..
Thanks for sharing !!!

 

Simply awesome Marty.

 

great gathering, been down a while for health reasons so i haven't been keeping up lately, i've always like the 3/4 roadster kit he had years ago, i would be interested in an old kit or a complete car if anyone wants to sell one.

 

what a great group of cars! thanks for posting.

 

Well, a year has passed and it was time for the gathering at Arnie and Sharon Chupp"s home, near Oregon City. Many of these cars were present last year, along with some new gems. I used my I pad this year, and the picture quality is better, I just need to take more time on each shot. Car count 46. ATTACH=full]6126575[/ATTACH]
