Great photos

 

Killer! Good for you showing the Artists and vendors. Slim

 

I had the honor of riding from Milwaukee with some of the Cheaters. I have a crappy camera, but here are a few good ones. Thanks for letting me ride shotgun Jake.

 

Great Pics, thanks for sharing
The show looked like a blast!

 

Wow!
Seems like a great show! I really hope to c more pics in the next days.
One thing everybody must admit. Voodoo Larry is an amazing fabricator! Maybe his stuff is not everybodys cup of tea, but the quality is incredible. The A rules, and that black blown sedan its a 1/1 scale crazy model! in a good way of course!
The green survivor is pretty rad too, i really like the polished slot mags on pinners.

 

Here are a few more! Check out the people in the stands for the Dirt Track runs! Even the Girls were having fun!

 

And The Host with the Most, John Wells, wife Kim and daughters, Madison & Hannah! Pix of the Car Clubs and their hand-made trophies. And then the auction.

 

Thanks to everyone for helping out with the auction. This went on too long for my tastes......but I was trying to hurry it up. I think next year we will do it earlier and NOT conflict with the track time outside.

 

Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

 

Awesome show, can't wait for next year!! Thanks to all that donated in our jar at the goodie table. John says the donations totaled $533 just in the jar!!

 

That was a great idea! I hope they raised enough over the weekend and came out ahead. Hannah & Madison are such little cuties!

 

Awesome!!!....you guys worked the booth hard!!...Had a great time too!!

 

Holy crap I'm famous (Red Circles at right of picture).

And I always forget how tall i am until I see my self with other people.

Thanks for a great time Mr Wells and family.

Mr. Porter Man, I will be getting some keychains from you in the future and some pretty blue hot rod makers... I just ran out of cash at the show.

Jeff

 

Hey, Jeff:
Sounds good! You know, the keychains make good X-Mas Tree Ornaments for your hot rod shop too! And, yes, you are tall!! I probably have you in half a dozen pix from the day.

 

not to hijack this thread, but does anyone have a dubuque slo pokes plaque?
thanks

 

great pictures! it was an awesome weekend. watchin it pour rain friday was okay as we were already inside the building. but sat. was awesome. the place was hopping and mr and mrs wells were terrific hosts. did anyone else think the scenery between madison and farley was amazing? the ride was so cool.

 

I don't have one, but I saw a picture of one at Vintage Torque

 

Awesome photos jack!!

 

Thanks for the coverage. There is a lot of photo expertise on this board and it sure makes missing an event easier to take when the coverage is as good as this.
