This kool Caddy first caught my eye a few years ago at the KKOA Leadsled Spectacular in Salina, KS. Since then I’ve seen it repeatedly and even parked next to it in the Kustom City Display this year at the Starbird-Devlin Show in Wichita. I dig it. Every time I take a photo of the car, I dig it more. This car just works for me. So I called up it’s owner and builder Larry James of Flyin Eye Kreations in Wichita, KS and I ran down to his new shop location and we shot this video where he tells a bit of the history of the car. Enjoy!

Part 4 and the final post of the show coverage from the Creme De La Chrome Rocky Mountain Auto Show in Denver Colorado held over Thanksgiving Weekend. This post features a bunch of rides that were on display in the Hot Rod Hill Climb area as well as the Deluxe Speed Shop display. Some of my favorites of the show.

That’s it for my whirlwind trip up to Denver and back on Black Friday. After that last pic I hopped in my daily driver and high tailed it east for 422 miles, had some drinks with friends and family and called it a day. I hope you enjoyed the coverage of the show! More fresh content for you tomorrow morning at 9am Central!

The Rumble, Wichita, KS Sept 28, 2013 Part 2
The show started at 1pm after some morning weather, that may have scared some folks off, but the die hards still came and were rewarded with perfect fall weather. From the time I rolled in at 1pm until leaving at 8pm it was perfection. The stage for the bands, pinup contest and awards was setup under the Kellogg flyover, and surrounded by cars as I rolled in. Later cars filled the adjacent parking lot, there was room in those two areas for 30 or so more cars as things were set up, and room up the street for a ton more as the show grows.

This ride is a regular at cruise night up in Salina, there will be more info on it coming, stay tuned 🙂
Something about this ride I really dig, maybe it’s the attention getting paint, maybe it’s the pie cut slicks, maybe it’s a lot of stuff.
So much style in the Pontiacs
Simple recipe, and it works.
Ooops I thought I had another shot of this truck without people walking almost in front of it. That’s the risk I take when shooting from so far away at a car show.
Like I said yesterday, I see Jason and his truck everywhere and I cant stop taking photos of it.
Nice looking roadster.
Another simple recipe with great results.
I think I should shoot a feature on it, and get the skinny on all of the details for you, what do you think?
So much cleaner without the handles and the factory turn signals.
I’ve shot dozens of photos of Joe’s Caddy over the years. I shouldn’t love it so much but I do, and I don’t care who knows.
Matt’s roadster is just too kool.
Hey that’s not a traditional hot rod or kustom! Yeah… I know. It’s my site I make the rules.
Cassie’s 57
Oh sweet Nadine. For most of you, your ride wishes it had this many miles and was still kickin.
Chad Ward was busy painting off the tailgate of his ride.
My buddy Elvis’ Caddy, yes he knows his tire is going flat.
A couple of my favorite Dirty Martinis entertaining the crowd with song and dance.
That’s it for this post, more throughout the week or you can click here and see the entire gallery.
See you at a show,
