Tom...thanks for the pics. I only went to one local car show this year, didn't take any pictures because it's the same crowd as last year.

As you may pick up on...I really like "white" cars ..that white Chevy up top looks great.

Wanted to mention that "every Sunday morning" our group of old timers meet at a fellow motorheads garage to talk cars, politics and work on an occasional car.  A few times a year we get out the electric fryers, eggs and bacon and cook on a greasy ATV lift! :P

This generation of hot rodders aren't all on the Internet yet and don't even own computers. Been trying to change that, whenever I come across a repairable laptop I give them out locally. Just gave one to an old timer. Waiting for him to purchase an ISP so we can get him up to speed and do some surfing in his garage Sundays!

Tom...Those are definitely great looking cars. I'm partial to the white 32 Roadster.That's a really clean and rare car. Thanks for posting.

I saw the white 32 Roadster at the Goodguys Show in Springfield Ma.  I went back a few times to try to meet the owner but never saw them.  That car and the 34 Cabriolet were my favorites at the show.  The detail on the 34 was incredible.

Tom

The paint on the 34 looks unbelievable and the body appears to be flawless. I've seen the 37 somewhere at one of the shows in Connecticut but I can't remember which one. That's an exceptional car too.

Hey Moose...you just hit 50 posts and are promoted!

Here is a 38 Chevy ratrod I just had to look at in Vermont last week. Runs and was on the road, 454, 4sp. Has an 80's GM truck frame that was Z'd with 4 link. 

Has my eyes open for a late 30's truck cab/fenders to hoard away!

If any of you are American Pickers fans the original 34 Roadster was in one of their episodes.  Talk about original it still had some of the mice crap in the back of it the first time I saw it.  I think the owner pulled it out of the barn and got it running and drove it.  It's from somewhere in Massachusetts.
