1 Month Warning: Lonestar Roundup!

Okay so I’ve shared a metric crap-ton (technical measurement) of photos of the Lonestar Roundup over the years here, on my Facebook, my Instagram, my Twitter, my Tumblr and any other social media site that I can log into. This year the show goes down on April 4-5 at the Travis County Fairgrounds on the Northeast side of Austin.

For the 2nd time I’ll be driving my Galaxie on the 1200 mile round trip to the show. The plan is to meet up with a big caravan of kool in Dallas on the Thursday morning and roll down together from there.

Here are some of what I saw last year.

From the Guidelines page on the official website, “Registration is open ONLY to 1963 and earlier traditionally-styled american hot rods, custom cars and traditionally-styled bikes. No Imports, No cars newer than 1963.”

That’s it folks, notice it that it didn’t say “rat rod fest.”  Keep the “random crap welded on for no reason” and “you chopped your ride 5″ so I’m chopping mine 9 because I’m a badass” cars at home, bring kool cars or just come to check them out!

See you at a show,

Event Coverage: Chaotic Customs Open House Part 2

Another of Jack’s recently finished 51 Ford.

Jim’s Olds is coming together nicely after sitting for a long time.

The Stears’ Ford all the way from Kansas City

Don’s Buick again 🙂

The Mistretta Family rides in style.

One of the many full on kustom builds going on at Chaotic Customs. This started life as a 1953 Chevrolet, it’s being transformed into an Old after a chop and swapping on an Olds front clip.

I love Stella’s new look.

See you at a show,

Night Shots on Congress

2012 was my 2nd trip to the Lonestar Roundup. This time I figured I’d take my camera to Congress for some kool night shots. Great idea on Thursday, too many people on Friday or Saturday. Anyways here are some of my favorites from that experiment, all hand held shots, I should have taken the tripod!
