Our last show for the season.
Went over a couple towns and walked around the last show (of any size) and thought I'd share some pics with you. I only took whatever grabbed my attention...

I went with the guy who helped upholster my car. He did the black rpu above.
Can you tell what the leather upholstery came from?

I know it's hard to see but the frame of the red rail is made from Torque Tubes! Welded towards the front but just behind the motor, you can see a joint bolted together! Or how about a Fiat with a Desoto Hemi?!?!

I was going to say maybe he robbed a "Member's Only" store back in the 80's or early 90's and tried to disguise the evidence......

I guess he finds "seconds" or damaged coats??? Once he had enough of them they stitched it all together and made seat covers... It takes all kinds! On the spare tire, look close at the hub cap.. it's a turned block of oak... complete with worm holes! I could only shrug and walk away! Originally Posted by randyr
