Event Coverage PoorBoys do BilletProof 2009

It belongs to Mike from the Salvagers (I think that's correct - he's the guy in the middle) It won best pinstriping last year - and that's not his trailer. His Hamb name is 'thekid49'

This one was trailered.

 

Great photos Wyle E Coyote. They really encapsulate the feeling of the show. I don't know how anybody could complain about this show. It was well organized, well attended and the selection of cars was great. On top of that, there was the museum to go through.

Hats off to Alan and the Tampa Poor Boys for putting on an outstanding show. Also thanks for picking my car for an award. I think every Poor Boy there took the effort to say something to me about my car. It was greatly appreciated and unexpected.

 

Thanks for the props on my Skull shift knobs Tim. I'm glad 4 months straight of slaving on these things paid off with great compliments at least. Your work is killer also. It was fun hanging with you and Sonny and maybe next year will be better. Or TRR this year. Next time drive the coupe dang it!

 

Definitly looked like a great time. I hope to make the next one.

 

my hats off to the poor boys and choptop they put on a heck of a show. the only down side is now it will be a whole year before the next one. i cant wait!!!!!!

 

Thanks Bill. You deserved the award, that is one beautiful car! I loved it last year, now it's just over the top cool.

 

Great photos guys. I got a cold brew, and went through em again. Wyle, your bud's 46 looks real good. Man that looks like a great show!!

 

DENISE & PhatCaddy,,,, Good one on the trailer....O.K. I'll leave the trailer Queens alone but I got to get in one of my rides and drive to Tampa next yr. Great pics. & thanks for posting . You think I can get a room at one of those nudist places down there?

 

I would like the contact info on the black caddy if anyone knows it.

 

Great show, Good job on the photos..THANKS

 

Good times !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

the shifter works by twisting the door nob via the cam chains the middle gear its an idle gear the firts gear is the one that actually shift the trans

 

I have to agree Gator very well built. But the guy who owns it didn't build it. It was bought off of ebay. And of course it was trailered to Billetproof.


Thanks for the great pics Had a great time at Billetproof.
Hardcore

 

CONGRATS!!!!.....Bill .......I am glad your car was picked for that award. I have to say the car looks great in the pics I have seen and I can not wait to see it in person. I will be there next year for sure.

Well thats disappointing to hear....

 

Thanks great pictures

 

so what happens to a car once you sell it? Should you be required to keep it forever once you build it? Or should you be required just to cut it up? What about survivors that get rebuilt and restored?

of course leave the trailer in your driveway.

 

I loved the show and so did my Wife (who was selling Poor Boy shirts all day long) and my 2 sons, Cort and Casey, who worked all day long.

 

Vicki and I had a great time also. We visited with some cool people, some we know and some we just met, you know who you are.

 

dont forget the fact that is also fast ass hell

 

Drove down from Savannah Ga. to check out the show, it was more than I could take. Greater than great!!!! Any more No Billet shows on the east coast?

 

Want to thank everyone and all the clubs for putting on a great show
no one was more surprised than me when i came back to my truck and found the note that "boo's junk yard" was picked for an award. Being
picked for best truck and seeing all the great truck that were their-
undertaker/guys from jacksonville/dark blue mercury/etc- boo is just
a driver and a lot of fun. I've put the billetproof award with my nhra
wally and i'm just as proud. Thanks again john and patty edge

 

Many Moons ago (over 10 years probably)... this car had 1" whitewalls and supremes... I have a picture of it somewhere... IMHO, it looked cooler then, he's kept the paint in beautiful condition.
