GoodGuys Puyallup Washington 2003

Marshall's barn fresh race car.

Cool ride seen in the pit area. There is that gorgeous 58 Impala in the background again...

Yumm...

Fish's A-V8 ride. Nice old timey work on this one...Fish used a 1950 Ford 8ba Flathead. The trans is 1947 Ford truck and the rear-end axle bells are 1940 Ford with a Halibrand quick change. Looks like it was built in the fifties, but this was actually the premier tour.

Dirty Dug's trackster and K-member's nasty 460 powered no 13 car...Jerry's coupe in the background. Doug's car is four banger powered.

If Dart Vader drove a coupe, this would be it. Check out the V-butted windshield !

Elvis stopped by...

1955 Olds Motor and transmission.

Looks cool coming...

F-head is taking his friends for a ride...

A Rockabillygreaseriffic Weekend was had by all...
