That truck is pretty cool I think he needs to do something to make the bumpers look finished maybe a shortened center peice from a 55 poncho. Maybe it just looks weird in that pic, and I'm wrong.
Man that trophy must weigh a ton I have one of those bombs and it's like 50lbs. In fact I sold one I cast off of it to Kirk. That better not be my befouled art it would break my heart.

50chevy, thanks for the great pics.

I saw this car at Pleasanton and forsome reason I can not get enough of this car. It blows me away everytime I see a pic of it. Every year I see one of two cars that just seem to hit my HOT button for overall style and look. this year, this is one of them.. Does anyone have a nice side show. (at pleasanton it was in the shade under a tree and I could not get a good pic).

Thanks for posting the pics. What a great show.

Have there ever been that many Model A coupes together in one place before... since 1931?

That '53 Merc with the blue flake roof, behind the '50 Chevy truck in the first photo. The kid shot it the night before!

It was deep and smooth, big flake, and no runs (we call them "Roth Tears" TM).

The front bumper on Robs truck had a small mishap on the way to BP and he couldn't get near a welder to fix the bracket. It normally is straight and has another chrome strip on it.
The blue coupe was awesome but the best custom was actually the 54 ford that was from the Calaveras club...bare metal and a ton of great work.
Damn what a great show!

Glad everyone liked the pics. Thanks.

The best truck Trophy Weighed about 150 lbs, I picked it up at Alex's Shop and was suprised how heavy it was.

That truck has the style that fits the Road Zombies criteria all the way down to the engine compartment, therefore it was chosen.

For Example: if you had a early motor but had latemodel accessories, but another car had early motor with generator would get choosen.

I hope I am explaining that properly.


In case you weren't aware, each cluB made a trophy and choose the winner for that category. Kirk chose best of show.

Boones, it was hard to get a side shot since the cars were pretty close together.

That fleetline was very nicely done.

I posted all the photos I took. (one of the trunk area as well)

Barnett, not sure who did the artwork, but it looked killer.

I think that bike is one of the sinner's???

Dave gimme a call whenever you want to stop by.
