Event Coverage What do you guys think? Interactive hot rod event map. Beta test.

Not much in N.E. South Dakota. Here's a link to Aberdeen's one and only car & bike show.

There's also an antique tractor get together at Andover, S.D. Several antique & classic cars show up for that as well. I'll find a link to that.

Cool - Thanks for all of the work to do this

 

Great idea thanks for working on this. It is rough finding shows near nyc. Would you add these?

As you can see schedule wise everything stops here with the cold making it a little tougher.

 

That's a good question. Honestly, I'm not sure. but I have to draw the line somewhere. I kinda just want traditional hot rod "bucket list" type of shows. Like I said I don't want to go to a show and look at new corvettes and mustangs that don't get driven. I also can't spend the time to list every small local show that could pop up, even though sometimes those are the coolest. That's why I originaly said large traditional hot rods....I'm sure I'm going to piss some people off by excluding some. I do not mean it as personal or to say it's not cool or to exclude people. Just since this will be a Hamb resource, in my mind it should only cater to hamb style events. Does that make sense?

Hmmm. will look into that. I could probably do it in "layers" so you can look at one, the other, or both. Also the only reason I haven't included a lot of dates is they change from year to year and I would have to manually update them. I've tried to include "3rd weekend of" type info where possible.

good list thanks. You get what I am going for!

Thanks everyone. I will keep you all updated.

This is definitely a good idea. I did one of these last year for the ratrodbikes.com Build Off Nine using zeemaps.com. Users can add there own markers so the administrator doesn't have to do all the adding. Here is the BONINE Builders map I did…

You can see by clicking a marker that some people have added info and some have not. You can add as much as you want, even photos and other media I think.

I reckon your event map idea is brilliant use of this online tool.

Cheers,

Glen.

Makes perfect sense. There's gotta be a limit somewhere, or all your free time will get wrapped up in this map. You've just set that limit, and it should keep all of us from listing the little events.
and THANK YOU for the work on it.

Hey man thanks for adding The Jalopy Jam Up! I have posted your map to our Facebook page and written a quick blurb about the map. Check it out.

Here is what I wrote.
One thing that everyone loves is a Hot Rod or Custom Car Event! Local meets are great but some of our favourites are attached to road trips where we actually have to drive a distance to the show! In the end the you get the best of both worlds; a Road Trip and Custom Car Event in one!
A guy on the HAMB that goes by the name of Hitchhiker has created a google map that shows all of the Pre-64 Traditionally Styled Hot Rod and Custom Car events around North America! Check it out! Maybe it will inspire you to plan a road trip in your Hot Rod or Custom! Great idea Hitchhiker thanks for the mention!
