Rebel Run, pictures from Lima, Ohio

This weekend was the Rebel Run in Lima Ohio. Nice show, laid back old fashioned fairgrounds. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

This was my attempt at an artsy road shot. David Perry has nothing to worry about.



This woodie belongs to Joe Lahaie








Wagon by the late, great Jerry Hill

More Lima pics...

 

Almost forgot, the next big thing...

 

cool pictures thanks....can you tell where i can buy a white goose? been lookin for years

 

Where's Fonzie when you need him????

Thanks for sharing

 

Sorry, here's a couple more. Still trying to get the hang of the photobucket thing.





Cut versus uncut

 

The goose was made from paper mache covered with fiberglass, and he seemed pretty proud of it. This may be the next big trend. I'm tellin' you, you'll see geese aircleaners everywhere next year!

That was definitely an admiring nod to to Kirk! and the Fonz. There's alot of bad judgement calls at that show, but I just couldn't bring myself to start taking pictures of them.

 

Wow! That looks like an awesome show. Who's '40 Merc is that? I think I just got a hard on.

Anymore of that red chopped '51 Merc in the backround of this shot?

 

Yes, I did enjoy the pic's.........thanks.

 

Love the Buick wagon and the Black roadster! Awesome large pix.

 

Really cool pics dude, thanks for sharing!

 

Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

Are you guys going to make the trip over for the James Dean and Ducktail Run?

 

And the one million dollar question is WHY?
Because you can, do´nt mean you should.

 

Very impressive array of rods and customs! Nice lack of rust-rods. Always cool Mercs for our Rebel hero, J.D. The flying goose with the side car is-uh-well-kinda-original? Strokes for folks!! Thanx for the way cool pix.-Sololobo

 

Thank you. There was a fair amount of ratty, rusty pieces of shit with skulls and spider webs all over them, I just don't really need to see them again when I look at my pics. Nothing against them though, to each his own.

 

Nice pix...quality turnout...man I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana and there wasn't stuff like that running around when I lived back there...thanks for sharing...

 

As for the goose...what's next pink flamingoes...yard trolls...don't do it just because you can...show a little restraint

 

Thanks. I've heard of Jerry's House of Color before, they build some nice stuff. I'm very partial to '39 and '40 Mercs though. And holy crap is that one nice. Many kudos.

 

Not trying to nit pick, but the woodie Merc belongs to Dick Lahaie, long time drag racer.

 

Absolutely correct, sorry about that. I guess I'm more of a Jim Force fan. (kidding, please, no corrections)

 

Unfortunately, no. Always wanted to though.

 

Nice cars-you got the picks of the litter.

 

The woodie is this year James Dean Run Cover Merc.

 

I think some of you guy's are missing the whole point on the goose air cleaner ! If we all did the same thing to our labors of love,who would give your car a second look ? I am doing a 1994 caprice in the sixties "rat fink" theme i'll bet some people will love it ! I have always like seeing the qunique. Just a thought ! Some bad ass cars & love that rivey, i like pink flamigo's !!!!!!!!!

 

Great pics... thanks for sharing!

 

Very kool pics!! I need to drive the Merc up there, maybe next year.

Happy Trails,

Mick

 

You WILL refrain from sharing you creation here on the HAMB I hope. Actually I'll be doing a lot of praying that you won't share with us.
