Event Coverage Mooneyes Open House Pictures

Spent a few hours at the open house today, not near as long as I wanted to but I had other things I needed to do.
Here are some of the things I saw.







I'll bet we'll be seeing a lot of pictures of this for a while. I think the Munsters might have built something like this.


I got there at 8:45 and this is what the street looked like.












I made the mistake of parking here (the red & white Ford on the right and had to have three cars and a bike moved so I could leave. They couldn't have been nicer though when I asked to leave.

 

Some more pics.





A few years ago at this show Mooneyes announced that the Holiday would be towing cars parked in their lot. I spoke with a guy parked there and he said someone came out from the bar and said they were going to tow cars today. Didn't see anyone getting towed though and their lot was full of cars from Mooneyes.






Love the 50's Caddilacs.


Sweet Chevy.




Spoke with the guy that owned this, said he drives it everywhere. The following two cars belong to his sons.

 

More pics.









Gotta soft spot for 60 Impalas, I had one just after I got married, paid $150 for it and it looked almost as nice as this one.




Looks like a 54 Vicky with about a 54 Merc grill and 55 Chevy tail lights grafted on, really nice job and looked like it came from the factory like this.

 

And more.

 

What a great show,I was sitting right by the yellow nova outside their fence.drug did you are the fairlane and comet gassers street race,it was off the hook!

 

Still more.







I see something like this and I think, "this is perfect."


And then I see this and think, "they're all perfect."




A 55 & a 56 Merc.

 

If only the bus did not get in the way, we had a clear half mile in front of us.......

 

Now for some bikes.

Saw a guy cruising this early moped down the street.


Nice little Triumph.


Or two.


The evolution of Harley, Flathead.


Knucklehead.


Panhead.


Shovelhead. I didn't get a clear shot of an Evo.


A little painting.

 

And lastly, a few shots of the shop.

Great pictures! Thanks for posting them.

 

great pics. felt like I was there.

 

great pictures!! Thanks for sharing!

 

There are some nice cars and bikes in the pictures. I wonder if any of the owners used Rustoleum and a roller to paint them. My guess is no.

 

That Indian replica is some good work. If you stare at it, it looks like the engine might be from one of those motorized bike kits they sell on Ebay That is some real craftsmanship.

 

Thanks, great pic's

 

I wished i lived in cali.
i dig the baby blue full fendered T coupe.

 

I brought my '66 Biscayne out from Simi Valley. I had a fucking blast. I sat and talked with Dean Moon jr. , Shugi? And Augie, we all just sat and bullshitted. I was talking to Dean about being a very little boy and sticking Moon water decals on my models and thinking that name was cool because of the eyes. And then here I am in the shop, next to the molds for the parts, next to the machinery that built so much, talking to Dean Moon jr. You had to be in the moment to see how ironic that really was.
Oh and there was also an after party Bar-B-Que with Carne Asada and Tortillas.

 

I didn't see any pics of it so here's my Biscayne.

 

Thanks, for sharing the photo's. I got busy this morning and did not make it out.

 

I was taken with it also,,,thanks for posting all the photos. HRP

 

When we arrived one of the guys told me that the reason the show started out slow was their was 4 other local shows going on. Awsome show!

 

Mooneyes events are things I'll never miss. I don't care what else is going on. Great time as usual.

 

Great pics thanks for posting them.
