Car show today with PEEEKTURES

[Fast68back]

I went to a show today, froze my butt off but had a good time. It was more a show-n-shine I guess. It was held at a shop, more like a complex called House of Hot Rods. It was pretty neat, there must have been about a dozen different buildings and 4 or 5 shops in this compound. Behind the house of hot rods buildings they had an engine builder/race shop, there was an interior shop, a tire and wheel shop. Anyway, enjoy the pictures....

BTW- that E-car came from the Unique Performance auction, it still had the auction tag with the lot number on the front of it.

Nice cougar and some bowtie stuff

This shop is HUGE, I counted 8 four post lifts along the left side of the building. Nice Cross ram Manifold and a 3 deuce GTO motor.

Lot of Chebby stuff, guess the Ford guys build their own...

This may explain why, 18 hours to replace frame rails?

This was a pretty cool car, with the Old motor in it.... Not sure I've ever seen an F650 limo before..

Last pictures.... The '67 top fuel car belonged to the race team, they had about 40 cars in their shop, it was about half the size of the big fab shop building. It was a truly amazing setup. Prior to this I think the largest shop I had seen was the Unique Performance facility and it was probably 100k sq ft.

Sweet shop! The wheels on that 'Cuda are ridiculous though, in size.

I'd like to see more of this '65 GTO too:

Looks like they are swapping the motor, the front clip is behind the motor, on the other side of the shop you can see the car on the other side of the forklift with what appears to be the new powerplant in front of it.
