Event Coverage Yellowstone Rod Run 1978 ( some old pictures)

While going through my thousands of pictures, I came across these from 1978 and the Yellowstone Rod Run. Maybe you were there, I was with my 36 Willys and took these pictures. Hope you enjoy some nostalgia.

The last of them, my wife and I traveled from LI NY to the NSRA streetrod nats in Columbus Ohio across the USA to Andy's Picnic and Yellowstone RR. 13,000 mi in 6 weeks.

Great Pics, Thanks for sharing

 

Looks like Jerry Kennedy's orange 32 5w under the COLORODANS BANNER

 

Thanx for the memories !!! I attended in '72 and '73 then several times since . Always a good time , laid back, and a great place to tour in a hot rod.

 

My first ever Rod Run was Yellowstone 1973. I was a 15 year old kid from a SMALL town in MS, spending the summer with my brother in L.A. and we drove up. I had never seen that many cars of that sort in one place outside California. And great people. Dick and Lois Magoo (only because I can't spell their last name) drove up in their phaeton. One day when I learn to post pics, I'll share a few.

 

Awesome pics

 

Hey! I was there that year. I have photos of many of those same cars. I'm looking forward to going this year too.

 

This is the "Most popular car" trophy from the first Yellowstone run in 1970.

Very Kool!!!! So a bit off topic how does a guy load old photos so you can use them digital ?

 

Either buy a scanner, scan and save to some type of digital memory, hard drive disc, memory stick.
Or take pics to a place that can do the same thing. Walmart, Staples ect.

 

I love the old pictures, cars have changed over the years, but not as much as some would like to think. Can't help but notice that the people in the pictures don't all like like blimps, humanity needs a famine.

 

Nice shots, thanks for posting those.

They drove their '26 T touring then.

 

My mom and dad were driving the white 31 model A roadster!

 

I have the grill shell off my dads old roadster. Gonna get used finally on the tub.

Larry Kaufman's old coupe.

 

Thanks for posting all the photo's,there were some great looking cars in attendance. HRP

 

Good to see Frank's '50 Chev 2 door again. He always wore the best T shirts !!! Remember "T" Willy's son chasing his daughters around ?

 

Tim: I've had success lately taking a pic of the pics and then downloading to the computer with the sd card. You could take the pics to Walmart, or a place like that, and they can scan them to a dvd for you. (psst...just between me and you, I'm looking at a '32 5wndw!!!) Tim

 

Theres just something about a 32 5 window isnt there?

 

Thanks for the corrections, Don.

Deuce does the same guy still own it? I was really impressed with the Z-28 cross ram and air cleaner, it made for a awesome engine set up.
