Dallas Autorama...anyone going?

[Revhead]

It's the 13-15th market hall $12 admission. The graffiti '32 and '55 cars will be there, and I guess a crapload of hondas UGH http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif and hopefully some other stuff. I'm thinking of going on saturday. If anyone else will be there maybe we can get together and grab lunch or something.

[Anderson]

Goin on Sunday. I expect it to not be at all worth the $12 and gas money to get there, but I've been every year since I was 8 so with the hell?

[flt-blk]

REVERENDZ should be in town showing a car there.
Merc50 will probably be there, without the Merc in the
show this year.

Send the Rev a PM so you can offer some Texas hospitality.

I will be at the Starbird show in Tulsa that weekend, sorry.
TZ

[Elrusto]

Aw hell, might as well!!!!

[Revhead]

funny elusto...that's exactly my thought on it too. I'm not dying to go, but there won't be much going on that weekend for anyway so might as well.

[Elrusto]

I got trick fucked into taking my wife out friday night, so maybe she'll do this for me Saturday.

Hey Eric, who you goin' with?

[Anderson]

I dunno...my girlfriend will be going with me if she doesn't work. I'd go Saturday, but i gotta WORK (finally, I have a fucking job! -Jiffy Lube - ).

[REVEREND JAKE]

We'll be setting up on Wednesday of that week and detailing until the doors open on Friday. We'll be the one with the teal and flamed T-bucket on a turntable. It's a nice car, but not HAMB style. This show is part of the ISCA show circuit, so I know what caliber most of the cars will be. Mostly old people cars and out dated designs, but there will be a few cool ones. I hope some local rat and kustom rods will be there.

FLT-BLK sold me out for Monkey and Whiskey, but I would have too. Starbird will be more fun, but I'm going to be at Dallas for sure.

Be sure to give me a shout if you go to the show. I'll be there all weekend.

PM me if you want,

Reverend Jake

revjake is a trophy whore. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
k&r whatch doin' get a job?
and elrustomike....ah hell. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

[Elrusto]

Elrustomike............. I kinda like the sound of it........... can I quote you on that? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif




AW HELL!!!

[du$ty]

well of course...you didnt see the little (tm)so its all yours. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[hamilton]

we'll be there, Skeet Reierson's Bucket and Boom Boom's Ford along with the Club's little tribute to Roth....I think I'm gonna try to make the trip on Saturday with the little ones in tow.....see you all then....

[Chopped54]

Ill be there on Saturday.
I am almost certain you can get discount tickets at O'Reilly Auto Parts.

[hamilton]

looks like you can save 2 bucks if you buy a ticket at the O'Reilly's...you can put those 2 dollars towards the 5 dollar hot dog! Nice!

Autorama Hours/Prices (http://www.autorama.com/casi/dallas.htm)

[REVEREND JAKE]

I resemble that remark kartbreaker!!! It sure does suck to get paid to detail a show car all weekend. For the right amount of money I'll be anything you want.

At least you guys in Dallas get a discount. When they sell tix in Tulsa for Starbird's show at O'reilly's there is NO discount. You merely buy your tix early, and it doesn't get you in faster because you have to exchange your receipt for a ticket. What kind of dumbass shit is that?!?

See ya there,
Reverend Jake

[du$ty]

is it snowing in ftw/dallas?weve got about 2-3 inches and counting.

[BubbaLuv]

its snowing hard here.

[Elrusto]

Yep, about 3".

[Elrusto]

.............. and speaking of the Autorama. A couple of cool pics. You know who you are. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[hankcash]

The whole Coollow crew is planning on going tomorrow.....

[Anderson]

Mike...was it any good? Did you by chance see a model contest?

This snow is fucking insane.

[Elrusto]

.........and one to grow on. These were taken Thursday night, when you can get in FREE !!

Hey HC, What are ya'lls plans for cruisin' down to the Round up?

[Elrusto]

I went with Suse and Pat so that means that we didn't see everything because they stand around and talk like a couple of old women!!!
It was probably upstairs and I didn't make it up there.

[smittyshotrods]

They do talk alot don't they? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Johnny Ace]

Heya BoomBoom ! After the show is over, I call dibs on the shirts! That tribute is great.....Look for copycat tributes to show up in Yokohama and SoCal right away.....

[Revhead]

Hmm well looks like I'm not gonna be able to make it. I got one car leaking gas all over the muffler and this car has no axle seal on one side now...well that and it's completely illegal. My ride that was comming from Ft. Worth decided it was too much for him to drive here...wuss. Anyway maybe I go sunday..

Who's shoebox is that? It looks familiar, I think I guy that came to look at my '56 cad a long time ago had a picture of that car.

What the hell is all this white stuff?

[du$ty]

i was gonna try to go see tony at elm street...and go to the car show....but it is straight up shut down up here.roads are covered...i remember growing up in Ohio...building snow men ...sleds...well hell...i live here now..damn it i thought this was Texas.stupid snow malarkey http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[Elrusto]

You built snow men, I did something a little more constructive http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif SNOW WOMAN !!!

[du$ty]

damn thats sexy.

[hotrodladycrusr]

Is that your tongue in her ear??? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif Sure hope it didn't get stuck there http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Byron Crump]

Elrusto...I have no idea how your camera survived the shot of the 32 So Cal brought out...not just because that car is so killer, but also becasue my dear old dad and his bunch of old fart buddies are in the background...yikes de is ugly as me and my crew http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

[du$ty]

merc50 you guys are pretty...pretty ugly.

[Elrusto]

I was wondering why that shot came out a little blurry. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[hamilton]

well, we lost out to the Mustang Club (ugh) for best club display but it wasn't a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Just wanted to show off Boom Boom's airbrushed shirts and our club display at the Auto-trauma...dig.

[roadstar]

Cool Display guys. It's a winner as far as I'm concerned.

Did you happen to meet a tatooed kid that works for the show named Race? I'm sure you would remember him http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

He said the burn out contest was out of control. any pics of that.

[Elrod]

Yeah Elrust-o.... MarkX, Flt-Blk, Merc50 and I had just walked off from talking to that guy who was detailing the Ardun roadster when you must have taken that picture.

I need to get a freakin' HAMB tattoo on my forehead or something....

[hankcash]

Other than the Chups cars and about 3-4 other cool cars in the show.... it was a Vette-Mustang-Viper bolt on show!
I think that this might be the last time I give my hard earned $12 to see a bunch of cars that I can see for free by stopping by a Ford or Chevrolet dealership....
WTF?
It gets worse every year. Some of the trucks were so awful that I almost shat myself.
I have been going to this show since I was knee high to a grasshopper and I remember more customs in years past than were there this year and the past 2-3 years...
I think that next year we should organize a HAMB car show out in the parking lot durring the Autorama!
Maybe I am getting old and grumpy...

HC

[Revhead]

Hmm sounds like I didn't miss much. That's a good looking set-up you Chups had there. I like HC's idea, next year its the HAMBorama.

[Johnny Ace]

Like I said...the shirts are OURS! ya can't say I didn't call it FIRST, Chups!
I'll pick up the figures when we get to Big D....
Pistons and Paint III,here we come.....

[flt-blk]

Hey roadstar, I met Race for the first time at the show on
Sunday.

Me Wiskey and Jessica (The newest Devil Bunny) busted ass back from the Starbird show in Tulsa so she could see Race
in Dallas.

The Chupacabra display ruled, BoomBoom took home a trophy
with the orange and green seaweed flamed shoebox.

TZ

[BoomBoom]

Hey HC, It was good to finally meet you and a few other Coollows. I gotta agree with ya on the state of the AutoTrauma. Man its just not the same. I have my suspicions that theres a little political good ol boy faction kreepin in. On the other hand its somthing I always wanted to do even if it was kind of a let down. It was cool gettin an award, (Scotts bucket got one also) but I was really disappointed that they picked the Mustank club for best club display. We put a lot of time and effort putting together a display we thought was pretty cool only to get beat by eight stock mustangs with a Banner! Oh well, the Roundup is only a month away and Pistons and Paint will be at the end of summer. (Stay tuned for the PnP location)
Johnny Ill make ya deal on them shirts ;-) Thanks to all who liked the display. You know I actually had guys older than me ask me who Roth was. At the Frickin Autorama!
Ed

[Revhead]

Congratulations on the award Boomboom. Ironically I came across a message board for the mustang club when I was looking for autorama info last week. I saw what they were bringing and well it wasn't very impressive. I think the Chups display is much more deserving of the award. So, was it you Boomboom that came to look at a grey primered '56 caddy 4dr in richardson about 3 years ago? Some guy that came and test drove it had a pic of a car alot like yours.

[BoomBoom]

Hey Revhead, Thanks for the congrats! The club worked pretty hard to come up with somthing different for a display so it means alot to know it was apprceiated. Nope werent me that looked at the Caddy, I might have it instead of my shoebox if I had! I had a 49 sedan at that time that I traded to get my 50. The picture you were shown back then was probably Steve Sellers car from California. What happen to the Caddy?

[Revhead]

some guy in sweden named Magnus bought the caddy. I'm not sure if it ever got shipped over there or not. It was one of those cars I wish I hadn't let go, but I need reliable transportation real bad.

[67Imp.Wagon]

Set up looks good. Wish I could have made it out.

Don't sweat it BoomBoom. You know you guys had the best setup.

Next year they will give it to the Big D little T's T-bird club. They have to swap off each year so it does'nt look rigged. I think they have a rivalry just like the Blood's and Crypts.

[Lomino]

We were at the Autorama all weekend. Did anyone of you guys pass by the Killer Ridez booth? We had the frame to the '37 along with some wheels and shirts. We were in the same room as the Chups display.

My Fiance' seen a couple of girls Sunday afternoon with the Devil Bunny jackets walking around and was curious who they were? Any info on them? Devil Bunnies in general?

[flt-blk]

The Devil Bunnies are Whiskey and Jessica.
We blasted back from the Starbird show in Tulsa Sun morning.
TZ

[BoomBoom]

The Bunnies are a group of HotRod honies from Kansas! Whisky is a bad ass pin striper and is also on the board. She could give you the straight skinny.

[Johnny Ace]

Hey B2....ya packin' all my shirts up yet? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[BoomBoom]

Yo JA, Is B2 gonna be my new RF375 name? I dig it! Now get me back on the board and we will talk bout dem shirts.
Ed
B2
Chupa

[Lomino]

Now I wish we would have stopped them and chatted a bit. So Whiskey is on this board? Maybe I will look her up. My girl is interested in the Bunnies....

[BARNETT]

BoomBoom...lemme know what it'll cost for a Java Junkie t-shirt...I gots to have me one o them!! Cool display guys!

[BoomBoom]

Thanks D.B.,
Ill have those shirts & a few more at the roundup. What were you doin in Vegas?

[BARNETT]

Took my dad (Father's Day gift) out there and we met up with his brothers from Indiana. I made a small deposit to help keep the place open. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
