What about muscle cars?

I have been adding a lot of pictures of street rods to this website. So here are a few pics of muscle cars for a change. It seems that around this part of the country (Minnesota) street rods are a lot more prevalent. This is probably due to MSRA being so popular and the fact that the Back to the 50’s car show only allows cars that are 1964 and older. Maybe that will change since the NSRA is now allowing cars 1980 and older to go the nationals car show in Kentucky.

Rat Rods anyone?!?!?!

Love em or hate em, rat rods are most likely here to stay. It may not be everyone’s idea of a nice car but, you can’t deny the originality or creativity of some of them. here are just a few pics.

MSRA Back to the 50’s Weekend car show.

Every year I find myself at the Minnesota Street Rod Association back to the 50’s car show. And it seems like every year it just gets better and better. This is the 2nd biggest car show on the planet with almost 12,000 street rods. The only show bigger is the NSRA Nationals in Louisville, KY.

This year I found myself carrying a camera around to try and get some good photos of cars and trucks to share from this website. Here are just 50 photos, enjoy.

Auto rotisserie photos.

There are a few minor design changes made since the photos were taken. However, you can completely customize the design if you wish by making simple changes from the drawings. If you choose to follow the plans exactly you can count on having a smooth operating heavy duty auto rotisserie when you are finished.

Body lift and roller photos

As you can see in the photos, this unit has a big advantage if you need to work on the rear or the firewall. Also note just how high the body lift actually goes. You could sit in a chair to repair body mounts. The entire unit breaks down for easy storage.
