Title: Our Show.. the Jalopy Jam Up...
Post by: Jeff Norwell on 2017-08-24 19:39
Have not been around much,... super busy and very busy with our little traditional hotrod and custom show up here in the Great White North.
We(myself and my 2 partners) have been involved and this was our 4th year... despite the horrible weather this summer ... the show was a huge success.
Based in an old dude Ranch, now a ghost town... we get 300-400 Traditional vintage Hotrods and Custom..stockers too.We do not allow anything past 64 and no cars that don't fit our criteria.We do have a lot called the open range lot for vehicles that do not fit the bill......want to keep everyone happy.
This all started because we are so tired of "cruise nights" and shows that let in modern new cars.....yea.. were snobs! hahahah
Anyhow.. we had 4 bands,TONS of draws and giveaways....Monster goodie bags and fun events...a hotrod garage tour,a pie eating contest, a freeze eating contest and a pin up contest.
It's a weekend event.. on 100 acres where camping is included in your price.... many vintage campers attend and it's a place where new friendships are made and old ones renewed.


We had a B L A S T !.

All from the Maritimes,Quebec and Alberta.

That looks like a great show and fun, awesome cars. I wish we had rules like that, really not interested in seeing new Mustangs, Corvettes etc.

No..  I'm not going to call you a snob.

     What's the story with the cool looking black 2dr Fairlane with the blackwall tires and small hubcaps?
It has a mean stance and look to it and is real slick looking.  since he is from  your neck of the woods, you must now all about it.  JA
