The venerable '32
5-window always looks wonderful, even better if it is chopped &
striped, as is Ron Williams' lovely deuce.
Don Petree's '34 Chevy might not have started
life as a sedan delivery, but it is now a radically chopped version
of that model.
Voted the Hottest Hot Rod, Steve
Watson's '34 3-window fits the bill perfectly.
A properly worked '49 Merc doesn't need to be
finished to attract admiring attention.
In a variation of the track style normally
associated with '27 roadsters, this'n uses a nail-head, deuce grill
& salt flat wheels to make a statement.
All manner of American autos were welcome, and
Jerry Sanguinetti's '71 Camaro took home the Bad to the Bone
award. The tube framed blown SBC really is bad. Nasty.
This mostly metal '41 Willys coupe would look
right at home at the drags.
Sometimes a flame job can over power the rest of
the car. Not the case with this pert little '29 roadster. |
Did we say deuce?
Thorry, it is pronounced dooth, as you can thee on the
lithense plate. Ron is from Clovis, and hith dooth runth a healthy
327.
Mildly customised, this nicely executed '50 Ford
is a Custom in more ways than one. Note the spotlights, wide whites
& ground scraping side pipes.
Note the reflections in the door panel of Steve's
'34 coupe. The fit & finish are perfect in every respect.
Hudsons and Hemi's rarely share the same
sentence, but this little '31 3-window coupe shows that the two
belong together.
Randy Thompson's '57 Chevy pickup has a highly
polished 383 SBC for motivation.
Jay Souza's pristine '32 Deluxe coupe belongs to
this pretty little flatty, replete with rare Navarro heads.
If I said that the reason this heavily channeled
'34 pickup could be built so low is that it had a Porsche engine,
you wouldn't believe me.
The roadster's Chevy uses a classy tri-carb setup and early
accessories, though the heads appear to be late model types. |
'34 style hood louvres, the nifty nerf bars, and
accented striping make this ultra straight '28 roadster stand out
from the crowd.
A happy camper lopes through the fairgrounds in a
flaming nice '32 hiboy, dappled by the sunshine breaking through the
shade trees.
I guess if you have louvred the hood, the last
place you should consider is the license plate - so he did.
Only a baby hemi, this little 270 inch version
got Don Wathor over from Rio Linda in comfort, and with gas at $4 a
gallon, he was laughing.
The 502 inch mega motor didn't stop Larry
Sedlacek from rocking in from nearby Livermore in this wildly
chopped '34 Ford Tudor.
No Dorothy, its not a purple ski slope, its Dale
Fooe's customised '40 Deluxe coupe.
So this might convince you. The workmanship is
fabulous.
A nice Ford powered Ford, in the form of this '36
slant-back Tudor, could have been yours for $32k, or thereabouts.
