Ok, enough of the rats...
Just a bunch of very nice rods, muscle cars and ???
Havent figured out if I like the chrome vent on the elky yet...:HMMM:
More pics from Turkey Run. Yes, it was a little chilly when the wind would blow, but Sunday was warm and sunny. Had a great time again this year. Notice the 'coon back-half sticking out of the fuel filler neck on the "Woody's Speed Shop" truck. D
2nd attempt to upload pics. . . . . .
More pics, but not Rat Rods . . .
Thanks for the pics of the shiney ones! The "other stuff" just ain't my favorite... 8-)
I really like that two tone 34! Thanks Again!
cool stuff
more of the hudson hornet!!! them are neat cars.
OK, more "shinny ones" The last pic is a Lincoln (Canadian). Not real shinny, but a unique vehicle.
Cool pictures, thanks for posting.
The car shown below isn't everybody's cup of tea and when I first saw it I was thinking "WHY?".:confused: But the more I looked at it the more I realized the guy not only did some great aluminum welding (the whole car is hand built from aluminum) but also it features some creative work. We talked to him at BelAir Plaza, nice guy, and he told us all about how he did it and that he realizes it is outside the mainstream, but he didn't want to build just another car.
It has a turbocharged v-6, air suspension, and hydraulic steering that he says steers better than his daily driver SUV. It had a crowd around it the whole time it was there.
BTW, what is with I-4 from Altamonte through downtown Orlando? Has to be the worst stretch of highway in the US. It has been that way for as long as I can remember and it was downright scary in a buggy sprung hot rod at 60 MPH. I was actually all four wheels off of the ground on some of the seams in the road! What an embarrassment to Orlando.

Don,
If you think that I-4 is bad, you should see the brick roads through downtown! Used to shake the willies out of the '48 on either of those roads!:eek:
With regards to the supercharged 6 in the aluminum rig, I'm glad you had a chance to talk to him! The closer I looked the more amazed I became...definately different!
Thanks for the pictures.
Only took me a milisecond to decide about the vent on the ElCam.

He was super nice and took time to explain the car, which he understands isn't what everyone would want, but from the people gathered around it and the comments he had the respect of everyone for thinking outside the box and for his workmanship.
I said "I bet you were good at welding aluminum when you were done," and he said "that's what I do for a living." It shows. This was one of those situations where your opinion got revised once you had a chance to really look at it.
