I don't even go to many "shows" but some have really started to turn me off because of what you describe.... I really have to watch it too, cause...
No, they're not. What doesn't matter?
my op was just about car shows that are pre-64'... but seems like there's always a bit if grey area with the whole 64'/65' thing. I saw someone...
Nice! I wasn't talking about HAMB events though unfortunately they've just been a little too far for me... maybe one day I'll make it out there....
So pre-64' means 63' and older... and I totally get why. I also understand the pre-49' thing for hot rods.... (talkin about car shows here) just...
Wow... I would have snagged it up too though. Have fun with it man, it's not like pre-war iron is that easy to find these days even if it has been...

Thanks for taking up an hour of my life! I got hooked and read every post... I don't regret it... I was going to write about how I hated the...
bump guess this isn't the most interesting topic, but would appreciate some thoughts
I've been reading that you should have a 100 micron filter before your electric fuel pump to avoid cavitation, but I found this out after I had...
64 grille and emblems.... not a uni, but could have been a 63 stepside or wrongbed.... not sure, but very possible that it was titled as a 63 and...
I totally missed that.... yeah 63 would not be twin I-beam if stock, and they're kind of hard to mistake when you know what you're looking at. I'm...
