great stuff in the swap meet area at the LA Roadster show

Wow... it would be so awesome to have these fire engine doors on the garage wall

Only 15 thousand for the belly tank, and only 55 thousand for the Ardun headed race engine

I bet the two sellers of these Do-all machines weren't ready for the competition to undersell

A really unusual tool to convince buyers to avoid pinstrippers, and do it themselves, a phantom priceguide

I've never met a pinstripper that's used this to price their work. But a guy trying to sell people on a rolling paintpen that they can use to do their own pinstipping, is using this booklet to scare people away from paying talented freehand pinstrippers to lay some lines on decklids, hoods, and dashboards. Not cool.

Support your local artists!

The variety of cool stuff I saw at the LA Roadster show

funny looking eengine? It's upside down and backwards, and was an airplane engine

























































































































Airplane topping a piston and con rod... that is a great hood ornament!


I believe I saw the above car with the awesome color combo and scallops at the Grand National Roadster show
A viper powered woody? That's nuts, but if you've got a Viper engine laying around... use it!





I'm ending this post with a hot rod Nash... since that is a long way from ordinary, and so was the cool stuff I saw at the LA Roadster show
