The Grand National Roadster Show 2009






Man oh man have I fallen hard for these old front engined rails in recent years. The hot rod equivalent of sky diving! Oh to go back in time and make just one pass in one of these. 

I like the shot of what TV Tommy Ivo saw. Nice race bucket by the late great Tony Nancy of course.

Yer killin' me, man! I've GOT to make it to this show before I die. That's a fantastic assembly of machinery. The Ivo car...wow. In person. That's got to give a person chills. They just don't have that look anymore - that long, slippery needle-like pose. I miss they days when the paint wasn't comprised primarily of sponsorship graphics.
