So, each year a local promoter puts on the Super Run on the streets of Henderson. Estimated car count today was around 1300......not sure I agree, but it's a good sized show none the less. A nice variety of cars, trucks, bikes, and other auto related "stuff". Here's a sampling of some of what was there.
A few more;
Not enough?
Even more;
Bored yet?
Very kewl stuff Uncle Bob!!!!! Thanks for the pics!!! At least I found out where all the vintage Poncho tin is hiding, it's in Nevada!!!! That red Star Chief is double throw down drop dead gorgeous (minus the graphic junk cluttering up the paint), Is the white Catalina a dual 4bbl??? Think I only see two air cleaners???? Oh yeah, what's with the red Caddy??? Looks like something I'd want to build!!!!!!!
The white '62 Catalina looked to have all the super duty goodies; dual fours, 4 speed with the spindly shifter, and the Ford truck hood scoop, though no cutout in the hood. Probably a nice clone.
The mini-Cad drew quite a crowd, that's why I took the shot from the rear, got tired of waiting for the sea of people to split. It had a small flathead 4 banger that said Austin on it. I didn't read his sign board, but from the looks of it it was built on a Bantam chassis, thus the Austin power plant. Neat little car.
Thanks Bob! What was the big 426 Hemi in???? Looks like most all OEM stuff on it??? Could you find me a nice 59 Star Chief 2 door hardtop???? I could just pick it up at SEMA time!!!!!
The Hemi was in a '66 or 7 (didn't look that close) Satellite. Haven't seen any clean '59 Ponchos in awhile, none in this market right now.
Great Pics! Thanks for sharing. Looked like a nice warm day too!
Bob,thanks for the pix,good cross section of OTHER models,definitely nothing against VWs at all,in fact,the only 32 I was looking for was the Gray Baskerville car,owned by a friend in Vegas.
Oh,yes,wouldnt say no to the A pickup either...
Jim was there with the burgundy roadster, it's next to the '34 5 window if you check the background. Don't see him driving the Baskerville car much when I'm here.
Just had another look,:D So he was ''CLONING'' around then,good on him.Quote:

At times this can be a small world.:)
