Feature Friday: Rick’s Home Grown Model A

A long time tri-five fan, Rick Salyer enjoyed driving his gorgeous black 1957 Chevy to some shows with his fellow Tulsa, Ok area friend Robert Roggendorff. In a “it’s a small world” twist Roggendorff was a high school buddy with my Dad and his older brother Tom, and after a surprise party reunited Roggendorff with the Scanlans we started going to shows together. The KKOA Leadsled Spectacular, the H.A.M.B. Drags and the Greaserama were all shows that we’ve attended as a big group for a few years.

Event Coverage: 2013 Rumble – Wichita, KS – Part 1

The Rumble, Wichita, KS Sept 28, 2013

The Rumble (formerly Rumble in Delano) has been going on each year in Wichita for a few years now. This is the second year for the show’s new late September date and the first time for the show’s new location just south of the Go Away Garage in downtown Wichita. Those two changes can be tough for a show to survive, but from my experience Saturday I think the show came through fine.

I really dig the under Kellogg/US-54 location, it just has an interesting and kool look about it. Here’s my Galaxie when I rolled in. As always, to purchase any of these photos as a print, click on it and you’ll be taken to the gallery where you can pick size and paper style. Metallic is my favorite paper right now but they all have their own place to be used and the site will even tell you what each does best.

There were quite a few early arrivers like myself.

Doug’s Toad and McPhail’s 41 Buick at the registration booth.

A few of the pinstripers hung out at the Go Away Garage and had a panel jam.

 

The platform out side of the Go Away Garage made for a great place to watch the incoming rides.

 

Jason and his truck have been at a lot of the same shows as I have been lately, and I’m not complaining.

Jack and his 51 leading in a few friends from the Mulvane Marauders. The 51 and Joe’s 41 Ford Pickup behind it took home 4 combined awards. The awards were hand made and painted and some of the koolest I’ve seen all year so far. Congrats to Fast AL’s Upholstery on the Best Interior award on the 51.

I just can’t stop taking photos of the Toad. Here’s some from a photo shoot for CKD magazine.

And McPhail’s 41 Buick sitting pretty.

Johnny Hammann brought out his shoebox.

Look! I found a couple of Dirty Martinis 🙂 with Larry Jame’s Caddy

Variations on a theme…

Newly finished this summer, and already one of my favorites.

Another that I’ve seen all over this year but I can’t stop taking pics of it.

That’s it for this first post, more throughout the week or you can click here and see the entire gallery.

See you at a show,
Royboy
