Event Coverage Pics, Gretna, Nebraska Hot Rod Show July 19, 2009

btt---nice rendering of Hat's (Dan) Olds, that mill is so cool, it was put together by the team of Dave and his son Davey Schieman in Fremont Ne. Total vintage equip. on the "Rocket". They also sanitized the firewall and painted it. Two of the best!!

 

Thanks Bonez, those are Rochester carbs, they are original to 49-50 olds. Original Edmunds dual manifold with the original Edmunds air cleaners. It also has a vintage Magspark coil along with a dual point Mallory. Vintage wire guides on the old finned valve covers. The alternator looks out of place, I'll got plans for that thou.

Thanks Jigger, that's an great drawing. I'll have to print that out and frame it.

Great pics, thanks for posting!!

 

Jigger---love the drawing of Dan's Olds.

 

Thanx for letting me know, basically if i got the info correct between you and Jigger it is a stock set up from 49/50, but its rare.I think i might have seen a similar set up only once b4, looks bitchin, stock or speed.Of course its pretty difficult for side draughts to look ugly.... I'll check your profile for a build thread now, id like to see more. Y'know, im trying to dress up my banger to look like its a old mill, kinda, and im doing some serious photo research to have it to look the closer possible to the real deal, yours is the kind of stuff i look at for inspiration and good source of info for parts.
