excuse me, but at least 25% of the street rods are trailer queens.

Yeah i wonder if it was changed strickly as a money maker? I know a lot of my friends with 32 Fords will not be so happy the likes of me can now attend.


We already get 3500+ cars here for the Street Rod show every year...
All opening it up to 79 is going to do is kill it...
As most of the Street Rod guys will get pissed off when the trailer queens start rolling in.

The Street Rod show has been my favorite show for years...
Mainly because you will NEVER hear any of the following the phrases:
"Wow, I can't believe you actually drove it here... and in the rain too"
OR
"Ah it ain't a real hemi... its just another cloned 318 car"
OR
"Man that original paint is getting faded & chipped... you know A Hemi/6-pack car deserves fresh paint!"
And lastly...
"That car didn't come from the factory with that!" ...


I like Carlisle too... however the constant picking on car details starts to get old.
The street rod show doesn't come with all the snide comments you overhear at Carlisle when looking at a nice car.
