Event Coverage Goodguys Scottsdale 2013

Thanks again Tom for those awesome pics!!!!!!!

 

Tom, this is an awesome picture. One of the best I have seen in some time.

 

Thanks, Boones. It's like taking candy from a baby when it's a cool car and it's parked next to a AA/FD for reflective purposes! Hahah

 

I must tell you Sir those are GREAT Pics!!!!!

 

cool pic's love that green 56

 

My buddy Jerry French has a good eye, good taste, so he shot these. He doesn't post on HAMB, so here ya go. Better shots than I got.

 

This is it for a while. Leaving for Austin today and will shoot the Revolution Saturday. I have more photos from Goodguys, too. Editing and posting will take time.





This may be the first 4-stack Hilborn I have ever seen on the street. Impressive!









I realize that Butch Tucker has a really nice engine and trunk in his '51, but man, Just once I would like to shoot this car closed!

 

Great pictures,thanks for sharing.

 

Safe travels.
looking forward to seeing the Revolution through your lens!

 

I think I know this car. Is it a '32 highboy roadster out of Las Vegas with a Nailhead? If so, the car is really nice. HOME BUILT to compete in last years GNRS but there was some very small hang up that made him a day late, so he's driving the hell out of it. Really nice guy!

Fabulous photography and great subject choice's. So many favorites in there i don't even know where to begin. Nice work !!! Thanks for posting. Gary

 

At what point did someone think this was a good idea?!?!?

 

I think it's a good idea. And I'm as pure a '32 purist as you can find.

 

How about you show us what you drive?

 

Thanks for the terrific pics Tom, looking forward to more and your coverage of the Revolution.
It doesn't get much better than this!

 

I agree. Never liked these grills any more than I like tractor grills.

Anyone know what brand rear tires these are?

 

Odd that '37 truck grilles look ok on '33's and '34's, but look that bad on a '32.

 

32 Ford Euro grill

 

It's an AWESOME idea! And, it belongs to a buddy of mine, Charlie Summerall here in town. I got to meet the original builder this weekend, Ed Belknap. One of his other projects back in the day was the nose and sheet metal work for Ewing's Super Bell coupe back in the seventies.

This car is truly stunning in person, and I was honored when Charlie asked me to build a louvered tail pan for it last year. It's powered by a hopped up 292 Chevy six.

 

Says Good Year right on them. I have a good set of four if anyone is interested, all four are 600-16's. PM me.

I can't tell you how they are branded, but they are available through Coker dealers. Just look at the tread patterns in their catalog and you'll see them.

 

The exact OEM colours of my 46 Olds sedanette. Something to look forward to pawnee beige metallic over new ivory combo, paint code 63A.

 

Are they round?

 

Yup!

 

Good stuff Tom. I love the flames on the Merc. Maybe if I ever repaint my 40 I'll do something similar.

 

It's been said here over and over and over , but INCREDIBLE pics Tom.......undoubtedly some of the best phtography I've ever seen! You just seem to know what needs to be grabbed in every pic! Well done and thanks!

 

Here's that grille again. British Fordson commercial vehicle origins.( yellow van ) BTW, stunning pic,s Tom, thankyou.

 

That grill looks great on that 5 window. Maybe cuz of the angle its leaning back.
