Good points there Mike P!!!
Here are a few more good reasons...
One of my best buddies here, builds 2 or 3 cars a year speciffically to sell... He is trying to build a reputation and aspires to start a buisness building Hot Rods... There are a couple of reasons that he trailers almost everywhere...
1st is the fact that he is building these cars to sell... It makes total sense that a person that is willing to lay down a pile of cash for a custom built rod would prefer that it is fresh as possible... You don't get any extra credit for rock chips and road wear!!!
2nd is that, often times he has magazine shoots scheduled at many of the major events throught the country... For those wanting to know how to get into a magazine, it is quite simple... Built some really nice cars and travel to the biggest venues in the country... Yep, you are right, it cost lots of money, but that seems to be what it takes to get the attention of the Magazines these days...
BTW, for anyone headed for Goodguys Indy he will be there with his latest rod a 33 Ford Roadster... Here is a photo for anyone interested... Ummmmm, powered by a stroked 409 for a total of 472 awesome cubic inchs... Unconfirmed HP rating at about 600!!! This car will only run on about 110 octaine fuel, kind of hard to get at the road-side filling station... Another reason for trailering to events!!!
