Event Coverage Symco Weekender photo thread

Another bitchin' show out in Symco, WI this last year. All the work everyone puts into it continues to show, and somehow this just keeps getting better each year.

Full gallery with high res stuff here: https://pistnbroke.smugmug.com/2019-Symco-Weekender/, but a bunch of stuff below. Enjoy, and of course feel free to add your photos below if you went.

 

The Five Aces represented! My first Symco!

Good shots as always

 

a few more and a bump for the Monday morning crowd...

 

Thanks

 

Did anybody get a good clean picture of the red '57 Chevy 2 door sedan that was on the main street? It won a trophy, was pulling out when I went to see it and couldn't get a pic. Really pretty car, mild custom.

 

Chopped 50 Chevy is pretty cool....

 

Do you mean the one with the tube grille and the inset parking lights? If so, I think I got one when I was shooting film, but not positive...and it will be a week or so until I have those back from development. And I agree...it was pretty kool.

 

I agree. I do wish it was painted though; the fenders and quarters have been in primer for a few years now...

 

Only pictures I took and thanks to the anonymous Hamber who left the nice note and H.A.M.B hat because he liked my coupe

@Squablow is the '57 2dr post you mentioned on the lefthand side of the frames in these shots?

 

Yes, that's the one.

 

I'm prospecting for The Retarded Sparks Car Club. We chose this car not only because it was a clean mild Kustom with just the right modifications, but because the owner was a great guy too. 36 years old and he already had owned the car for 20 years.

Here's a close up of the trophy we made

 

Awesome weather, awesome people, awesome cars! This is by far my favorite show and weekend of every summer. Thanks to those who host the show! Shout out to Frankie and Donny for showing us the inside of their Airstream!

 

Third and final set of digital shots (I'll post film once it comes back):

 

Unfortunately, this guy had a bad time there!

Oh shit! Definitely no bueno.

 

Thanks for posting these pics HotRodRyan, they're the best shots of the car that I've seen. I didn't get to meet the owner, but he's 2 years younger than me and his '57 is about 10 years worth of work ahead of mine. I really liked it.

 

You won't see my chopped Chevy at Symco after it receives a permanent paint job. The grounds there are too dirty and dusty and that's why so few nicely finished cars return to the event.

 

Thank You !

 

I understand why, but that's a bummer - your car is really bitchin'!

 

Got some film images back. All shot on my Hasselblad and Kodak Ektar film (you know...traditional stuff).

 

Love it
Thanks
What ever the green car is with 6 cylinder those pipes and intake are freakin awesome
