I made about 5 rounds trying to get a picture of that car without some mullet in front of it.  Everyone of them had to be talking about it, "Why'd he do this, why would you do that."  then one guy was talking to his buddy about how the builder added two radiator hoses because flatheads were bad for overheating.  

And I gotta say that the Canucks really show up in both quantity and quality to this show.  Makes the ND guys look bad.

   What's a "rat"?  Sorry, don't mean to cause problems. Just have a problem with the word.

I know mines rusty, but I don't consider it ratty either. I try to put as much thought, time, effort, and skill into it as I can. When everybody else says it, i just brush it off. I do know they're jealous of all the fun we have with our rusto rods. I hear it more and more. Paint scratches and causes high blood pressure.

Well the shots I took of it last year were some of my most popular photos, hopefully the ones I took this year will be as popular.

   There are a couple of bent spokes. Shake goes away after 40 mph. Plan on changing to '35-'36 spoke wheels anyway.
