EDDIE COCHRAN WEEKEND IN ALBERT LEA MN

just got back from the eddie cochran show ,lots of cool sounds and cars except the first car i saw when i came into the show!!!i didnt know what to think,just a couple of samples

 

this truck was way low

 

another

 

this was my favorite

 

I like Gremlins. You could get a factory V8 4spd car. I don't like the flames on this one though. I'd like to have one for a daily driver. I had a tan one, with factory tan wheels, with dog dish hubcaps. It was a straight 6, with a factory 3spd floor shift.

 

there was a purple flake and candy gremlin that used to go to PORKY'S all the time,,,

it was FUCKING awesome,,,,

Time to start a new event thread rather than digging up this way old one....

 

Here are a couple of pics from the 2010 weekend. It was very rainy that day, so turnout was light. The original 60's comp coupe was great to see. There is a thread on HAMB just for that car at:
