VooDoo Larry Wins at the Ducktail Run

I've been waiting for someone to announce that Voo Doo Larry won "Best of Show" at the Ducktail Run held in Gas City, In. last weekend. he came down in his new bright green custom.

None of the Voo Doo Kings were at the Ducktail on Sunday. Larry won this 3+foot tall award for his car and the event management wasn't sure how to get it to him.

After awards we went up and told them that we would be seeing him at the Pileup in two weeks so they gave it to us. For anyone who sees Larry, tell him we will bring it to the Pileup. It will either be in my son's red and white '55 Desoto or my flat copper colored '51 Merc.

Larry, congradulations to a deserving, nicely done car

Congratulations Larry!

I believe that it is a 46 Ford or Dodge and it has been channeled and the fenders widened and a whole lot of crazy stuff. A lot of nice little details. I've been following this build for awhile and look forward to seeing it in person

 

I'm sorry but that car just doesn't do it for me....I thought a custom was supposed to flow?

I'm not going to argue about craftsmanship, I haven't seen it in person.

Perhaps that's just a REALLY bad pic of the car? It's right up there with the "El Matador" in my book....and those hubcaps? Come on...

Was this thing built in Florida?

***Edit***

Ok, I went and looked at some of the other pics of the car from another thread, and I've got to say, that the photo above doesn't do much for the car. It's not neary as bad as that photo makes it seem.

The interior of the car is real nice...I like it quite a bit. Tasteful and subtle.
The tail lights are ugly IMHO, but they were ugly to begin with.

I don't think the Kaiser dagmars on the front and the dummy spots belong either, but I'm not the builder.

Anyhow, I'm not here to piss in anyone's Cheerio's....I'm sure some smart *** will say "let's see what you built"...blah blah blah.

Congratulations on the trophy Voodoo

 

Heh...how's he gonna' get the trophy home from Pileup?? His cars tend to have kinda' low roofs...

 

Congrats to Larry! I've been friends with him for a long time and I am impressed at his restraint on this one compared with some of his previous cars.

He can put it in our trailer for the shop. We should have plenty of room.

More pics.

It was a 46 Ford. Larry is a cool guy and the car was great.

I think some sort of running board would have improved the look dramtically. Those front fenders just seem to be hanging out in space. Other than that I think it looks pretty good. And that pic does not do it justice.

Hmmmm....what the &&#37;*# does that mean?
This one in the pic was All built and owned in Florida by my buddy...
Funny Huh?.
i know there are some **** box pastel cars here but MOST were brought here from else where around the country......
acctually i beleive Larry is from Mid West...
anyways,Congrats to Larry..

 

Just looked at the other pics, I kinda like now. As for the photo above- it does not do it justice.

 

Congrats need to go out to Florida, they are off the hook!

 

Honey get me some popcorn this should be interesting
Ok im comfortable lets rock..
Dave
oh ya congrats on the big *** award.....

 

i still say

hmmmmm

and i had seen the other pics before saying that as well

lifes not a cartoon... nuff said if u are familiar with the past builds

 

If I can remember right.

46 Ford
Stud grille
Plymouth taillights
41 Buick skirts
Kaiser overrides
Cad bumper(I think)
and more I don't remember

nothing on the outside of the car is later 1952

BTW way just incase, if you click the pix on my site they will expand to full screen.

Yea, its interesting alright. When you enlarge the pics, you can see the wavy bodywork around the doors.

 

Not my "cup of tea" but a step up from the other stuff I have seen Larry do...does that mean I like it? No.

WHY do people ask this stupid question...???

I'd bet, according to the owner's ***le and registration, it still IS...

Body work didn't change the make or manufacturer of the car...it only changes the outward appearance...

A better question would by WHY would the owner do this...??? But then again, it all depends on what the owner wants...and taste is very subjective.
