Event Coverage **Hot Rod Fall Out VIII** Oct 12th/South Glastonbury CT

Real nice day. Was glad to be able to sneak into a vendor slot at the last minute, thanks guys. If I do this next time I may be able to find stuff in my shop.

 

My first time, thought it was GREAT!!...be back next year

 

Had a great time,....here's some pics and vids.

 

My blue 34 at the show, and stopping for gas on the way back to Rhode Island.

 

Here are a few of mine...

 

and more... Yes, that is Wayne Carini with that MG looking car...AND...it has a freakin' flathead in it!!

 

You can ride with me anytime Swifty!!! That was one of my favorite shows, along with meeting you and Corey at Hershey a few days before the Fall Out!

 

That's All Folks!!!!

 

That's a friend of mine's coupe,.....his belt pulley broke the center right out of it,...no one had a match at the swap meet,....and every Auto zone, Pep Boys, Advanced, etc,..etc,...in the vicinity had none. Back in the day, they all had an assortment of SMB chrome pullies, but now, since the LS motor has been around for 14 years,..well,...you know how that goes.

 

It was a great show again! Wanted to join in the reliablilty run, but after a 4 1/2hr ride down Fri Night and 3hrs getting pops cars clutch straightened out so he could make the show, I just gave up on the idea. But I did collect a few new bugs from the ride!
Good to see everyone, catch you all in the spring!

 

Hey Joe you didnt need to make any boner run after a 4-1/2 hour ride each way you did one heck of a reliability run on your own! See you in the spring.

 

Good to see you and Laura as well. I'll send some bugs down with the fruitcake at Xmas!haha.
See you when the snow melts!

 

Hope I can take you up on that offer again sometime Laura. I gather you rode up with Ron as I didn't see any pics of your coupe?

 

Thanks to everyone for the great Pic's.

 

That ended up being a reliability run for me, too. 2 hours there, 2 hours back....that's the longest for my 34 yet. Worked out great. Wish I could say the same for my lower back........yikes.

 

hey that's our poncho,we got back home last night to Dieppe N.B. Canada total of almost 1300 miles,my wife and I met some really great people also.

 

oh yea I just want to say thanks to Charlie and Matt for putting on the fallout great job guys

 

that's awesome! 1300 miles round trip for a show is quite a ride. Glad you had a good time. I am sure if they had a long distance award you would have earned it. Really makes my ride down seem like C.S. doesnt it?
Nothing beats driving them huh?
Maybe you could send Ron some bugs too??? haha.

 

A few short videos from the event,........just click the pic for the video to play.

 

I love Barry Atkins' 50 Olds. The thing is killer!

 

love the pics, keep them coming!

 

My favorite show...prob because its in my back yard! Nice job guys!

 

Nice coverage of the event on tonights "Chasing Classic Cars" with Wayne Carini. Lots of HAMB cars and people. The "Gherkin" coverage was great. Bob

 

Yeah, saw Wayne Carini driving my old roadster! He couldn't get the story on it straight, its a 1934 (not a '33) and you wouldn't use a 6V battery to start a SBC .

He bought it at the 2012 Glenmoor Gathering auction.

Thanks Michigander! Is there a thread on the old roadsters history, looked like an old magazine feature car? Love the HAMB! Bob

 

Yes, but it was rather unloved by some here on the HAMB.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=456769

Sorry about the dead photo links, they are gone from Photobucket now.
