It’s been a busy week for me when it comes to posting. The KC Goodguys and Greaserama threads finally went up and now it’s Starliner time!
This was my first Garage Krawl so I was excited, at Yblock292’s (Jack’s) place his 29 and 40 were waiting outside while his 30’s were in the garage.
From there I went to the host hotel, one of the first cars that I saw was Krobe’s way kool Chevy Fastback.
Tons of folks from as far away as Arkansas and of course the large contingent from Colorado were on hand for the Starliner weekend.
Aaron from Fast AL’s Upholstery was on hand with his 54 Ford, Aaron just had his grand opening of his new shop in Dewey, OK, congrats buddy!
Krobe wasn’t into the paparazzi treatment this early in the morning, just kidding buddy!
Then Doug Reed showed up in the gorgeous Toad.
A couple of our KC buddies getting ready for the Krawl
Wiiiiiicked kool!
Copperhead!
Hot Rod Dan showing off his new hat, he spent the rest of the weekend showing off his new Fast AL’s interior!

And we haven’t even left the host hotel yet!
Part 2!
Continuing on Friday morning at the host hotel as we head out for the Garage Krawl.
Johnny Hammond’s 58 was on the back of the show shirts this year, along with McPhail’s 58 Truck, here’s a shot of Johnny’s ride.
Finally it was time to take off on the Garage Krawl.
The first stop for our group was Good Jeb Upholstery on 2nd St. Jeb’s just opened up this shop but he’s been doing upholstery for awhile.
TwoTallOkie and I in a strategic game of “Hey Travis I’m taking a picture of you”…
The McGregor boys have some kool toys, this Ford truck is sure one of them!
Next door to Good Jeb Upholstery is the Van Chase Studio, makers of some fine shift knobs and the like, very cool to see how it all comes together.
Some of Jeb’s cool bikes
Lucky for us across the street from Jeb’s is Ty’s Hamburgers, a tradition in Wichita, so we slid across the street and had a bite.
Next up was Devlin Rod and Custom on Douglass.
Devlin’s had a few projects in the shop, a couple had just left, but I don’t see how you could have a couple more in the shop and get anything done haha. Good work is always coming out of this shop every time I see their cars at a show.
Then on to a couple of private shops JR’s was first.
That’s it for this post, next up we’ll hit Rocky Burris’ joint for a bit then off to Hooligan Hot Rods, Red House Custom Paint, The Iron Buffalo and finally yblock292’s for a cookout. Don’t touch that dial!
See you at a show,
Travis
