Car Craft Nationals in Mpls
Just got home a few hours ago. Turned out to be a great day, beautiful weather. I planned on only being there for 3 hours and it turned into 6. Ran into Earl, found Wes's car (I think), Kent and Tommy Mathison's car (Didn't know which guys were you though) not to mention several others. There was definitely something for everyone there. I was told that the original 2 Lane Blacktop car was there but could not find him. Completely restored by the original builder of the car. Enjoy. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Re: Car Craft Nationals in Mpls
Yenko Deuce. Thought it was Earl's at first. Belongs to Ron and Andi Hecker of Rockford, IL. Very nice restoration.

Re: Car Craft Nationals in Mpls
Kent Mathison's Z-28. Painted by the same guy that does all my cars. Beautiful work! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...n_IMG_1410.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...n_IMG_1411.jpg Now this is a new way to inject a Z. http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...n_IMG_1412.jpg Seems to me this was a Car Craft or Hot Rod feature car from back in the early 80's. There were actually many 70's-80's Street Machines there that still looked as good as the day they were build. Nice to see them back again. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...n_IMG_1413.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...n_IMG_1414.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...n_IMG_1415.jpg |

Is that dirt and gravel on the front end of the Black Camaro.......Love the 69 "Z" with the Super Rare 1 of 1 Fuel Injection unit... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ouguysrock.gifKen https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif |

Re: Car Craft Nationals photo essay
Ken, if you look closely at that black Camaro, it is peppered with rubber in the right front corner. You can also see a lot of it on the ground. The hood was covered in those little blackish grey stones that are used in blacktopping as well as rubber fragments. It was quite an interesting situation once the cops got there. I think there was four of them there.
Sam, I am sorry but I did not stop long enough to get the information off the Dick Landy car. I was disappointed his hood was not open as well. |
