For the 2016 Starbird-Devlin Car Show For Charity I brought my 51 Ford for the first time. Picking it up from Jeff Myers at Premier Body & Paint in Arkansas City, KS and driving straight to the show for load in on Thursday. Seeing as the most I’d ever driven the ol’ girl was about 40 miles in a day at about 55mph, I was about to put the newly hooked up overdrive to the test. The old flathead was spinning fine and I made the trip from Ark City to Century II in Wichita in good time. I have some stuff to work out on wiring and the like and then the car is going to be pretty much done for a few months. There are some photos of it in this set of photo coverage.

The 2016 Starbird-Devlin show went down the weekend of Jan. 15-17th in Wichita, KS at Century II. The 59th annual event marked the first year that I brought my 51 Ford, a work in progress, to the event. The show’s proceeds go to support a handful of local charities, more on that in the coming days. Enjoy the photos!

The 2016 Retro Rewind in Dubuque, IA is physically a small event in a fairly small venue, but it’s HUGE on heart. That’s what the Retro Rewind, Vintage Torque Fest and Iron Invasion events are all about in a word, heart. John Wells and company put these events on to raise money for the 501(c)(3) Helping Hannah’s Heart Foundation. PLEASE go check out this foundation, it’s so very important that us in the hot rod and kustom world help out foundations like this that help out good hard working folks going through some of the toughest times in their lives.

My 2nd trip to Dubuque, IA for the Retro Rewind went down over the weekend of Jan. 9, 2016. The 3rd annual Retro Rewind was a lot of fun, even if I decided last minute to not bring my ride. The bitter cold may have kept my car (I wimped out after being sick all week) and some spectators away but there were still a ton of great cars, trucks, bikes, vendors, bands and awesome car people at the show.

What’s In Store For January 2016?!?

Only available for 16 more days!

2015 was a fun year! In total I traveled 25,768 miles in 2015 to events as far away from central Kansas as Austin, Indianapolis and Georgetown, Colorado. In 2016 I plan on cutting back a bit, and relying more on my friends out there that love to shoot car show photos as much as I do to help fill in when I can’t be everywhere. However, the first 3 months of 2016 are shaping up to be pretty awesome, here’s what I have planned for January.
