Event Coverage My Jalopyrama Pics

I know that I don't have many photos considering All the great cars and things going on, but all I have is a crappy IPhone at this point. Anywho, this is what I have!

 

Chevys

 

More Great Stuff

 

More Inside.

 

Finally made it outside, but missed a lot of great cars. Next year, we will go outside first! Oh well, hope you like them. Also, met John Mullen and some of the crew of The Va. HAMB Special and Joey Ukrop of The Rodder's Journal and The HAMB. A pretty good day, Carp!

 

Very cool pics.. I kept changing my mind as to which one I liked best....

 

Thanks for posting pics! I was there playing the tunes outside.

 

Nice work. Thank you for posting!

 

very kool!! I got a thing for them early drag cars!

 

Thanks for the plcs.

 

Thanks. Wish I could have been there. Next year for sure.

 

Great pics. Thanks.

 

Love the Jeep Wrecker.

 

I walked by this a couple of times hoping to catch the owner and talk with them.
There used to be a few of these in my hometown, they all had plows mounted to them and were pretty much fully rusted out. I was curious to learn what condition this was in when the restoration started. Great little piece of automotive history for sure and I am glad someone saved it.
Chappy

 

Frankie, that wrecker was ready to work. Chappy, being from UPstate N.Y., any Jeep had a short life span! It would be great to know the history of this one, it was really nice.

 

Thanks for the photos. Snowman

 

I spent some time at The Rodders Journal table myself, going through their stacks filling in some of the gaps in my collection. Joey Ukrop? Any chance he is related to the Ukrop grocery chain family in the Richmond area? Hence the move from California to Ashland Va. Or is that just a coincidence?

 

...................Good question. I would like to know the answer as well.

 

Thanks for sharing your photos.

 

A quick Google search and a Linked In look shows that features writer Joey Ukrop was born in the Motor City and graduated from Missouri's journalism school...so any tie to the Richmond Ukrops family must be distant relatives at best.

 

I have talked with Joey numerous times on here and other sites. Made it a point to meet him in person and found out that he is actually staying with relatives in the Richmond area so there might be a connection. He was going back to Ca. after the show as TRJ is still in the moving process. Great young man, Carp.

 

thanx man, this event is tops

 

Nice stuff! Thanks for posting!
