Default Something a little different next weekend (3-22-08)

I know alot of you appreciate older cars. I'm talking about Hot rods, and customs (pre-muscle car era).

Well, on march 22nd, there will be the first-ever South-east "billet-proof" in Ocala. Screw the catalog hot rods, don't bring the trailer queens, and if you have billet, you will be stopped at the gate. Save that crap for Daytona the following weekend. This show is all about traditional rods and Customs. They are capped @ 500 cars for Big Daddy Don Garlitz place, but cars are coming from all over the SE.











more details at Billetproof

I'll probably be there somewhere

I hoping to do a story out there. Charles...do you happen to know the organizer? I want to get in touch with somebody out there.
Here is my friend Tim's hot rod. He's hoping to have it completed by show time.

Thanks Charles! I'll check up on it.
I'll probably leave from Leesburg, my folks live up there. But I'll keep you posted. Not sure if Tim's rod will be ready. I saw it last weekend he had a lot of work to do to it still.
