Winter Wheels

Hey all we had a good time at Crusin South car and bike show at the Southaven Arena Miss. on January 8th. Particapants were treated to a nice party Friday night with drinks and door prizes ! Saturday 60 or so cars and 20n bikes were on display and the band , “Tom-Dick and Harry rocked the house , Man those guys are great !I’m gonna have to find them in the bar scene soon ! There was a wide variety of rides from choppers to top fuelers ,monster trucks to sprint cars. The judging was not the old first ,second third stuff , but rather they just picked the top five cars . I am happy to report Mike and sindys Nova was a top five winner , congrast kids !
This is the first time this show had been put on and I hope it continues thanks to … Crusin South

New art panel

Been working on a aluminum panel as a gift for Lucky Hanks ,Lucky is a source of inspiration for me he is so knowledgeable about building cool cars and fixing stuff the right way .The panel was cleaned really good then a grinder was used to rough up the surface in no particular way . I then shot several coats of clear urethane paint on it and then sanded it smooth. My design starts with transfer paper smoothed out on the edges drawn out then cut out with razor blades. Now the fun , spraying some candy color over the panel and when it drys I"ll pull off the transfer tape to reveal the design .the ground metal effect reflects light in different directions even under the candy paint which is transparent Then I'll apply the gold leaf lettering and the pinstripe and finally a bit of clear and shes done until i buff it out .Thanks Lucky ;Merry Christmas !

Ronnies Hot Rods

Got to check out some of the cool rides built by Ronnie's Hot Rods , they are located in Senatobia Miss.and the quality of his cars are great ! Ronnie was a featured builder at the NSRA show in Louisville KY. this year,something Ronnie explained to me was a huge honor for him as well as his shop .Hope soon to go tour his shop and see the projects in progress !Check out his web site ...http://www.ronnieshotrods.com/imageview.aspx?id=22and he is on facebook also !

Fitzgerlalds car show

WE had a good time at this show put on by several car clubs and sponsored in part by Comp Cams and Ronnie's Hot Rods .The show was a good one for Mike and Sindy as they received a top 50 award and Ronnie's Hot Rods top pick award, which was a huge honor because Ronnie builds fine hot rods!I was impressed with his "stuff",and they had several cars on display .The first night we ate at the Fitz buffet and got to see, Uncle Kracker play there also ,good show !Saturday the weather was much nicer,warmer and more cars showed up.We'll go again I'm sure !

The ole 55

Got a chance to help Kinny and Mark work on a 55 Chevy ,a tree had fallen on the roof and broke the window out !Mark is now the owner of this 55 he acquired it from Kinny ,I'm sure there is plenty of work to go around. A new 300 hp. 350small block and 3 speed trans had been recently installed by Mark, I'm sure it will be a neat car,a simple little cruiser , Mark already has a bad lil 55 4 speed with a 355 cu. in. small block , and a few other projects also in the works more pics soon !

Thats cool !

Hey all , I'd like to congratulate Albert Kruger and Mike Helton for both being winners in two different car shows recently. Alberts win came at the Centerville Tn. Auto show, his Jeep powered by a small block Chevy won the 4 x 4 division .we had a lot of fun building this project with Curtis , Albert's son !
Sindy , Mikes wife took their Nova to the Comp Cams sponsored show at the casinos in Tunica . They won best in show and the Mayors award ,the top two awards ! Not too shabby guys

Crusin the coast

Well we had a great time ,the weather was awesome,the beer was cold ,our women were great!The whole premise of the cruise lead us to several areas around the coast .At each of these stops when we arrived there was a car show, bands ,food and fun . We danced a little,cruised a bunch ate great seafood and relaxed a bunch !The crowds on Friday night were a bit wild , they line both sides of highway 90 coaxing the drivers of cars to burn rubber , and there was plenty of that !
