Last week, we posted a couple pictures of Squindo and his gang as they made the trek to the Lonestar Round Up in Austin, Texas. Now that the event is over, these folks from the East Coast need to make the long drive back home, so we had a few more visitors stop by as they passed through. Yesterday it was "Scary" Larry Garland and his crew piloting a killer Deuce roadster and a '34 five-window. Scary Larry puts on a very cool nostalgia car show called the Jalopy Showdown, one is held May 21st at Latimore Valley Fairgrounds in York Springs, Pennsylvania, while the other is held October 1st at Beaver Springs Dragway in Beaver Springs, Pennsylvania. Check out www.jalopyshowdown.com for more information on the shows. Here's a couple of shots of their cars.... Today, we had Mike Szuba stop by in his vibrant Deuce five-window, and he had Dave Knight riding shotgun. The coupe rolls on whitewall Firestones, so he gets a big thumbs up for that! Hey, and get this--the coupe made that long road trip with a trusty Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission! That's cool! Mike is also a car show promoter, and he calls it the Jalopyrama. It's held on October 22nd at the Annapolis National Guard Armory in Annapolis, Maryland. Check it out at www.jalopyrama.com. Here is Mike's '32... These guys still have a long way to go, but we're glad they stopped by the shop to hang around for a while. If you're in the area (or even if you're not) check out these shows and take part in the job of traditional hot rodding! We hope they have a great trip home!
