Back to the Fiddy's

Susie and I went to partake in what's called "Back to the 50's". So basically its pre '65 cars & trucks (except they are apparently trying to keep big trucks out (like fire trucks, grain trucks, any other really cool big truck). I guess the total number of cars on Saturday was 11,700. Yeah, there are a lot of really cool stuff (Offy engines, Ardun engines, flathead engines, huge blowers on cars that probably weigh as much as the engine, flake paint, rusty cars that you need a tetness shot if you get within 5 ft of, chrome (but not too crazy), pin striping, and other misc. little things) and there are really, really ugly things (modern engines in "roadsters", modern tires on "roadsters", new billet wheels (or newer stock wheels, like Camaro wheels on a 50's Chevy truck, yeah, real bitchen dude) on "roadsters", "roadsters", guys that try way too hard to make their rat rod (their word not mine) even rattier, Chevy II's & most Impala's). But it was still a pretty good time. I mean we got to eat a corn dog, cheeseburger, good ol' Sweet Martha's cookies, and drink some cold lemonade.
