I plan on attending Saturday. It's my first time attending. Streetrods are drivin' by Chevy, Hotrods are powered by Ford!
Just checking there will be someone there until 9.... we're on our way, but got caught in a wicked storm. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Great show. I fell in love with an untouched all original black 1936 Ford 3-window. It was in great shape and looked like it probably did in the early 40's. I say it was worth every penny of the $15k asking price.
It was an awesome show for the couple hours i was there. The dates are going on the calander list for next year. I will bring a vehicle and stay all day. Streetrods are drivin' by Chevy, Hotrods are powered by Ford!
Glad you guys had a great time. We truly enjoy puting Jalopy Fest on and its all because of the people that attend. September 12th and 13th are the dates for 2015.
Amazing amazing time!! I have a bunch of pics to post up...but they are all on my personal computer....currently at work. Will try to get them loaded up tonight. This was my first time, and I will be there next year with my '50 with the 283 SBC dropped in!
