Hot Rod Magazine 65th Anniversary Party @ Pomona

Man.. If I could make the show, I would. Be sure to take lots and lots of pictures for us guys who can't make it.

Let me place an emphasis on the key word here; lots.

Hope everyone enjoys the show.

looks like the guys wont make the show but the car will be ready for the local shows this season after being in drydock for 15+ years!

 

btt

 

I was there today, it looks like only 3 1/2 buildings from what I saw. I'm glad I'm not paying $18 to see a bunch of cars I've seen over and over again.

Not as many cars there from Hot Rod as I thought there would be.....lot's of "filler" cars.

If you haven't seen these cars in person.....go!!! You'll enjoy it.

 

Any mobile event coverage?

 

going tomorrow to film it for MFS 8

 

just back from show, a lot of memories for us older guys that have been reading Hot Rod most of our life.
A lot of really cool cars for the younger guys

 

Come on guys, post some pictures for us poor slobs on the wrong coast !

 

Yeah! what he said.

 

Anybody got pics of the show?

 

I went yesterday - really enjoyed the show, so many cars from years past that we have long forgot about. BUT you better have an open mind because you will see everything from the Dick Flint Roadster to garbage like the Cheap Fast Chevette build where they stuck a big V8 in a clapped out Chevette and cut the hell out of the floor and firewall and never bothered to put any sheet metal back in.
Other cool cars like Dobertin's Blown AND Turbo'd Nova that reset many standards, CHEESE WHIZ, Early Little John Builds, two of the Stone Woods & Cook Willys, All the way up to stuff that is in the current issue - like Bruce Myers and his Myers Manx.
Well worth the twenty bucks in my opinion

 

Did anyone take pics?

 

Must have been a "No Cameras Allowed" show, thats why we have no pice.

 

first of 2 sets of pics I took

 

second set
my phone takes really big pictures, so I have to smallen them

 

Thank You for the pics.

 

there were 4 buildings full of Hot Rod's cars, local hot rods parked in between the buildings and the NHRA Museum which had the McMullen Roadster. They also have Ivo's and Grabouwski's roadsters and a few other cars from the pages of Hot Rod

 

Thanks.

The dude with the braided hair must be from out of town.

 

Oh I wish I'd gone.....

 

Is that a Word?

 

i went and i thought it was pretty frickin epic. definitely a once in a lifetime deal where you'll be able to see all those cars together in one spot in the flesh... er, steel. seeing them in the mag is not comparable to seeing them right in front of you in person.

 

I smallened some more

 

Hey Itownrodder, I was at the show and your Stude was about as nice as they get! Of course, as you can tell by my avatar, I'm a little partial to the Studies...But seriously, if I had to pick the best race car there, it would have been yours...Congrats on a great job putting this old quarter-miler back to its glory...Joe

We went to the show and thought it was great. As we were walking around I was telling a friend about my old 34 that was sold just last September and we came around a corner and there it was ~ freaky coincidence
