Event Coverage ~~Pistons and Paint '08~~

Had a great time!

 

If anyone wants the larger high-resolution pics, PM me.

 

Cool shots man!

 

Cool pics...and welcome to the HAMB

 

Thanks!!
I'll probably be hitting the Thaw show (work permitting) also.
Thanks for the welcome, Big Tony.
I lurked here for maybe a week before joining... greatest board on the web, hands down.
Maybe next time i'll get to meet some people, yesterdays show was kinda rushed for me, so I only got to take pics and scoot.
But all in all it looked like a great turn out, lot's of really nice rides!

hey fidg, is that your modified.... looks like you got some more color on it??

 

cool pics thanks for posting them

 

Yup! Did some bodywork to the hood, and was tired of cleaning the rust off of it from my handprints....then did some work on the cowl and grill shell too. Figured since I had to paint it all again anyway, I'd throw a little color on while I was at it.

 

Man, it was kinda rough getting the shots I DID manage to get.
Lotta people at this show, which, isn't a bad thing by any means, it just
makes for challenging photo opportunities.

 

Here is a few I took of it pulling by the booth

 

Anyone notice the brake setup, thought it was pretty interesting

 

Great shots man welcome to the site

 

thanks fer the pics, welcome to the hamb! thanks again cobey

 

Wow! Damn that thing pops. Thanks!

 

Fine for an e-brake but seems like that would put a lot of stress on the axles if its your primary brake because you are forcing the axles to twist every time you brake.

I do like that gusset around the track arm mount though.

 

"Voodoowagon", Killler shots! Thanks!

 

I hope this just the E-Brake........Drive line brakes are dangerous on the highway.
Broken axle or diff = NO Brakes!!!!!!!

 

If it's the Blue coupe, it's the e-brake. It had 4 wheel discs on it.

Cool car, but some parts of it were a little weird...the body reveal lines were a little funky...hard to explain. not bad at all...Just weird.
it was clearly nicely done by a talented builder (or builders) but...

(Crap. how do I say this without sounding like an asshole? I liked the car. I really did. BUT)

it was neither a hot rod or a show car...not enough of either, not too much of either. Very cool...But I had a hard time finding it's pulse.

 

I looked all over the car and that is all I could find, even asked the guy how well that works at 75 miles, he said great. He even only had one side hooked up.
