Event Coverage: Street Classics Pre 1955 Show
I have been to a few Street Classics shows before and I always have a good time so when I saw a flier for their Pre 1955, Hot Rods – Roadsters -Rat Rods, show I made sure to stick it on my fridge so I would remember to cover it.
While the show was smaller than previous Street Classics shows I had been too (due to age specification) the quality of cars was still amazing.
Stickers/Airbrushing
We young punks are not the only ones with a sense of humor
I seem to be seeing this sticker more lately
Old school stickers are so much fun
This is the second time I have seen a painted on plate at a Hot Rod show
Lost time
No woman no cry
Awesome
If you need any real fabrication this guy is the man
This song was played at least once during the day
Airbrushed Pontiac logo, pretty boss
Airbrushed inside of the hood
Trucks
Vintage trucks just have a certain look about them that makes them unique. I think it has to do with the balance of round fenders with strong body lines.
And to think this was probably a work truck once
Vintage hotness
This truck is full of win
This Suburban was for sale, around 35 thousand if I recall
The most unique vehicle at the show
Best hood ornament ever
Purpose built
She moves
Led sleds
Chopped, dropped, and channeled, no bondo here
Flatblack, lake wood pipes, and flames, classic lead sled
To finish of the look this car just needs a floodlight
Flat pearl paint helps the pin striping pop
These cars are so hard to identify due to the amount of mods
Dumped.
Hot Rods
While technically all the cars on this page could fit into this category I am going to use it to separate the other rods from the Highboys and Lowboys
Bad ass Bel Air
Attention to detail yields a clean trunk like this
A classic flame job fills out these fat fenders
The bra kills the front end but saves it at the same time
The spilled coffee was fake
Not a rod but this guy dropped by for a little bit with this nice chopper
Better shot of the car with the painted on plate
This one was actually really small more so for a four door
Haha woodie.
They sure don't design them this well anymore
I love the lines and wheels
I wonder how much these paint jobs cost, I guess if I have to ask...
I bet this car goes like hell due to it's size
Tiny little thing
Low shot of the this small rocket
Bel Air wagon
Ford Highboys and Lowboys
In this weeks Theme Tuesday I alluded to the fact that it was one inspired by an event. Well this was the event.
Inspiration for this weeks Theme Tuesday
Killer profile
Clean Highboy
I always loved the exposed gas tanks
Double the fun
Classic vintage hot rod style
This car was so period correct I spent a lot of time looking at it
The white firewall and two tones of purple help bring it all together
This angle shows off the motor detail a bit better
Beautiful
Wouldn't expect this car to be towing a trailer
The beginning of a work of art
The finished work of art
The black ruby metallic pearl of the car in the foreground was immaculate
Hopefully I can make it this show again next year and see more classics.
