    Ruin, don't forget to make a Helldiver's club pick trophy for the show, that way you and your fellow club members can pick the car you like the best in the suede palace.

    Since the first year of the Suede Palace, all the clubs started making club pick trophys, and have turned the event into the oscars of traditional hot rodding, seems like the trophys get better and more amazing every year as well as the cars, last year Pete and the Alter boys blew it out of the park with their hand made belly tank trophy, if any one has a picture of it , please post it.

    That was a killer trophy. It's a great tradition for the suede palace. The helldivers are more than happy to be a part of it

    i corresponded with axle and he said that he'd be happy to have my car in the suede palace.

    he asked if i'd post some pics of it

    my uncle owned this car from 1953 til 2009 when i bought it from him and restored the car.

    he raced it alot local around the bronx ny area and was pretty succesful. in 1956 he raced it at the nationals in kansas city.
    he listed in the program with the car.

    i have a ton of history with the car.

    so i guess ill be making the big trip west this january

    never sure where to put this show in the list of best CA car shows....
    #1? #2?
    either way - it is one of the best ever and if you have never been - you gotta make it!
    I wish I could go this year but the finances just are not there................

    If your daughter lived in LA and was going to have her 30th birthday a few days before the GNRS, would attending the GNRS for the first time be a good present? I know I'm going to like it.

    Hey BTW Sheraton Fairplex Pomona isnt giving discounts now, its way too late, they said even though I booked in September it was too late for the special rate already, guess you need to book a year in advance or some BS....plus I heard they are already full..
