RNR1957NYer Posted July 25, 2019 Report Posted July 25, 2019 Well, I survived the 90 + degree heat last Saturday at the Syracuse Nationals. I didn't spot any forum members, but saw a bunch of nice MoPars. I'll start with some photos of nice, "stock" early cars on the Fairgrounds. Quote
RNR1957NYer Posted July 25, 2019 Author Report Posted July 25, 2019 Here are some modified cars - I know some of these will not be everyone's cup of tea, but as is my habit, I only photograph cars with Mopar mills! Quote
RNR1957NYer Posted July 25, 2019 Author Report Posted July 25, 2019 Finally, here's a fun "before and after" - hope you enjoyed the pic's 1 Quote
51cambridge Posted July 25, 2019 Report Posted July 25, 2019 Thanks for sharing, could go due to health reasons with the heat. Quote
greg g Posted July 25, 2019 Report Posted July 25, 2019 The green 47 coupe belongs to a friend of mine. He is a member of the two up/two down set as he has dual cards and dual exhaust. Car also has overdrive. Runs out nicely and he drives it a lot. The maroon DeSoto was owned for many years by one of the officers of the Oneida Lake Region AACA. The p15 four door is owned by a younger fellow who got it on the road two or three years ago. The "before" three window has been around for quite a few years owned by an older gentleman. The yellow convert is a California car which was restored and re-motored some years back. The four door conv usually resides in the auto museum in Norwich NY. 1 Quote

greg g Posted July 26, 2019 Report Posted July 26, 2019 Will likely see Dave tomorrow, I will ask him if he knows. Don't know if he bought it like that or did the paint after pruchase. Quote

RNR1957NYer Posted July 29, 2019 Author Report Posted July 29, 2019 You do nice work, fast! I missed seeing your car: I was there Saturday AM. There is a show in Auburn Saturday, 08/10. We will be back visiting family - you going to that show? Quote
Hickory Posted July 30, 2019 Report Posted July 30, 2019 can not make that show, we are hiking in ellenville this weekend Quote
Hickory Posted July 30, 2019 Report Posted July 30, 2019 I had a pop up there all weekend, not the most comfortable sleeping weather. Quote

greg g Posted August 12, 2019 Report Posted August 12, 2019 I did not attend as we had a nieces graduation party. Which car did you see that you thought was mine? Quote

greg g Posted August 12, 2019 Report Posted August 12, 2019 Yup that the one from the nationals post. Belongs to friend Dave. He is out and about quite a bit with it. Runs as good as it looks. Quote
matt167 Posted August 12, 2019 Report Posted August 12, 2019 I didn't go this year. First time in many years I had not attended. Went to a friends wedding instead.. Took my MGB last year but it wasn't any different than being a spectator and kind of a pain in itself. The show needs a venue change to one with a track or it will eventually die. It hasn't been the same since the pre track demolition and events held on the track. Quote
