I like that caddyup. That duel carb setup is sure an odd one!! For some reason I have visions of swinging a baseball bat.

Hey, my green Gal! Little too much scroll work inside for my taste but I would still take it if they gave it to me.

Rose colored glasses. First I'd seen a rose colored glass roof.

Some cool cars and a variety. Can't imagine cleaning that shiney AF truck thing all the time!!

That green 64 had a wrap around rear seat and white interior was very nice custom.

That sounds cool. Might as well fancy up the rear seat cause there sure doesn't seem to be much else to do with them. I must be getting old! Not to mention they seem to have shrank since my younger days! LOL

That ratlimo thing was cool too. Room for the whole family not just the ant hill mob brothers from that cartoon Wacky Racers.

Since you own a 64, did you notice that the headlights were all 7 inch, not that standard 5 1/2 (or whatever). Also, the side "bulge" that ends in a point about half way through your door, extends into the rear quarter panel on his?
There are so many little things that he did to that car, its amazing.

Oh, buy the way, you took pics of just about every car except the one I came down in

.
Tan 32 highboy roadster, right hand drive. The car came from New Zealand.

That was the best Pileup yet!

I cheated, I could not get any good pictures because too many people. I stole this pics of the HAMB. He seemed to have the most. MY car did not get painted or the interior put back in so I had to hang around with my buddys 59 Ranchero with Edsel nose. Page two last two pictures. I am the big ugly one in the picture. I did not measure headlights but I sure knew something was different in the front and the side.

I saw the Ranchero, it was about 2/3rds of the way down on the side by the empty farm field. I thought it was kinda cool with the Edsel front clip

I knew I should have posted up to see if you were going! I was with these three cars, they said my car was too nice to come in last year, so I walked in the gate. There was about 1300 cars this year a bicycle that shot flames, and a turbocharged gokart. lots of things that make you go hmmmmmm!! So much to see, my feet still hurt!!

I remember the low stretched one. My knees are still sore also. Next yerar we need to meet at one of these. Did you make it to the Lions show across from the power plant on rt 6? I was so tires after looking at the parts swap ( guy i bought my Galaxie from there two years ago was there and remember me) I never even walked the show cars. I was there with my 68 F250 camper special.

ShotRod64 · 10-15-2008, 08:51 PM

I actually just made a quick pass of most of them and didn't even notice that bulge or whatever you want to call that on the green '64. I kinda like that.

von zipper · 10-15-2008, 09:46 PM

Yes. we shall have to meet next time. Actually, I blasted back up north, changed cars, and took my 64 to a car show that had a blowup movie screen for a makeshift drive in! flick was Christine!!!
