Moonshine Rod Run pix, from today

[papabearxl]

The Moonshine Rod Run is held every Father's Day weekend, here in Newport, Tennessee. It is for 1958 and earlier cars, although a few otheres usually come, too. We didn't get to check all of them out, I think there were about 350-400 there today, because of a storm that came through.
There was (1) G-Body there, for sale, at $3200....108k miles..(1) owner if I recall correctly..got a couple of pix of that too. Was in super-nice shape. Wish i had the jack to buy it!

Here are others I took:
My oldest stepson here

My youngest and oldest stepsons were allowed to sit in this rod, the owner was a cool guy, and was glad to see my wife and I trying to interest the youngest generation in the cars, so maybe they would keep the flame going......real cool gentleman.

Love the color combo here, with Codi, my oldest, and my Father-in-Law cheking it out....

Oldsmobile:

Love this combo too....

Dig the roof spikes....had a flywheel for a steering wheel (ouch!) and a gas station pump handle for gear shifting.

Looked like a super nice show. Some really cool rods there. Quite a variety. Thanks for posting the pics.

It was, and you're welcome. Took my camera, but wouldn't you know, I turned it on and the memory card was full, so all of these were from my phone. WIsh we could have stayed longer, but like I said, a major storm came in and drenched the area.

You could've fooled me that you took these pics with a phone camera.. Excellent shots. Love the cars. I think I'd be dizzy looking at all those beautiful rides. :shock:

Yes, the Tempest was clean. I did take the pix with a Samsung Flight, and sent them directly to Photobucket Mobile, and they were ready for me to copy and paste images to this thread when I got home. Would have loved to have seen every car, as we might have been able to see half the cars, and even then didn't take but a percentage of those cars pix.

A Samsung Flight? Wow pretty impressive quality for a cell phone. The only phone I've seen that could take better pics was the C905A. Too bad we didn't sell that for no more than 6 months. I really wanted that thing. I work for AT&T btw...LOL
