Looks like the Best one in this location... hate to see it end! Might have to make the "Hunnert Car Pile Up" a cruise instead of a show starting from a location unknown to a destination unknown!
Thanks for the pics. I hate to see those fake California license plates on some of those things, though. We have a bad enough reputation as it is...
Nice Pics Fibertech, thanks for sharing them with us Yep, I bet its stupid fast and it sure sounded good.
I wonder about this background........Hmm.......I wonder if the guy is checking out the flames on the bike or helping his "gal" lean forward.
Ive seen these crew cabs done before, but this one was very well done. Didn't appear to be on a modern frame. This guy did it the hard way and the rear axle was from a straight truck not a duallie axle. The Red Shirts receiving their marching orders....
I spent the day vending with Club Members, and had a really good day. I hate to see the Pileup come to an end, but will always have a favorable "last memory" of it. Overall, the Czars did a great job, and the event was very well organized. The criteria for the rides getting into the event, was observed much better this year as well. I have a great deal of respect for the Chrome Czars, the Red Shirt Army, and all the other participants who have worked so hard to bring this event to it's 10th anniversary. I congratulate ALL THESE FOLKS for A JOB WELL DONE! Thank you for all the years of an epic event that will be long remembered as one of the biggest & best shows of it's kind! Future shows of this kind will always have the Pileup as the proverbial "one to beat" while measuring their success. The truth is, it'll never be beat! I'm fortunatr to be able to say I attended 8 consecutive Hunnert Car Pileups, and always looked forward to the next as the years progressed. I will always miss this event!
S'pose that one had the gate crew scratching their heads a little? Great bunch of pix - thanks for posting!
qoute..."I hope someone picks up this show and runs with it" ...that won't happen, but here's a thread about a show next year in the same timeslot... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=618476
Exactly. I saw it at the Torquefest and I didn't see anything traditional about it. It had '67 YOM plates on it then, too. Some might think it's cool, but it doesn't belong at a "traditional" show when other "cool" cars get turned away at the gate because they don't have the right wheels or air cleaner.
thanks so much for the pics!! The devils tail fender skirt on the wagon & the black w/ stripes w/spiderwebs is on my little car!! so Thank You!!!
LS, Toyotas, and Rat Rod T's with ricer motors HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH TRADITIONAL HOT RODS!! But I secretly like that toyota!
