York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

The York US 30 show is just days away. I have been in contact with Darwin and the place is full. All those that are participating with the Supercar Registry group will have there own indoor area to park together. Look for the new Supercar Registry Banner that will be on display to mark our area....BKH

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

So, who here is taking a digital camera? And when will see the pictures?!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Hedrick is scheduled to attend. I look forward to meeting him. I am still thinking about changing over to rallye wheels for the show. I am just a bit tired of the Atlas look...BKH

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Which would be a better day to be there - Sat. or Sun.? I may just be able to attend one day.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

JoeC;

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Brian, Thanks in advance for helping to get a few of these cars together on the East Coast...it's going to be a great weekend!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Three cars have dropped out. But two others have taken their spot. It should be great. We are leaving at noon Thursday. Thanks to all that have comitted to the show..BKH

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

BKH;
Who dropped and who joined??
I was originally planning to go this afternoon, but vacation days are limited so I'm leaving as early as I can Friday morning. Hope to get there around 8:00 a.m. when they open.

I don't like the Atlas wheels on my car, I don't think they go very well with the Gobi Beige, and the rears have a little too much offset. I put Polyglas F70-14's on them, and I can barely put a finger between the wheel lip and the tire. They may have even rubbed a little bit last night when I mini-launched it on a test run. They will look appropriate for this show, but then they come off!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Sorry, I had to drop out, but with a little luck I will be at the reunion.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

WOW !! What a SHOW!! I want to thank Brian for getting all these Great cars together for us to see.And a SPECIAL congradulations on the Award for Largest Club Participation. This show would not be as good if it wasn't for all the people from this site. Brian "MOF" [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

WOW is a good way to describe the US York 30 show. The Supercar Registry had 13 cars in attendance. We were awarded the club participation award. A special thanks to everyone that brought out their Super Cars. One of the highlights of the show was without a doubt Ed Hedrick. He won the Super Stock Championship in 1969 with his Yenko/Jenkins prepared Yenko Camaro. What a great person he is. He shared a ton of information about his car with us. He was happy to sign anything that our group asked him to. Just by luck the new Supercar Registry banner was diplayed at the autograph table. All the Chevrolet drag greats were happy to sign it. Malcom Durham, Grumpy Jenkins, Bruce Larson, Ed Hedrick, Mrs. Dave Strickler, Linda Vauhn, and Jungle Pam. This along with our trophy and items from this show will be on display at the Supercar Reunion Show. Ed Hedrick may attend as well for a Q@A. The amount of rare iron in the building was mind blowing. Altered wheel base Hemi's T-bolts, Z11's and many other great Super Stock and vintage rails, not to mention the amount af great cars in the cruise area. The show is signed for 5 more years. They wants us back! You have a year to get ready. We will put together a group for next year, any one interested yet?...BKH

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Brian,
Count me in for next year--I will plan for it!!
Like to bring the Motion Phase III Camaro. Glad the show was a success for you. See you at the Reunion.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

This show was awesome!! The best day was Friday, watching all the 'old school' cars come in, kicking back cleaning the cars, harassing each other [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

It was nice to meet some more members of the board, 68l30, and John Hauer, among others. The highlite of the show was definitely talking with Ed Hedrick - what a wealth of info on the events from back in the day.

There were some good vendors there, BKH and I picked some cool issues of Drag News and National Dragster with '67 Yenko, Harrell and Deuce ad's in them. I also picked up Speed and Supercar Oct. '68 with a '68 Motion Camaro on the cover for our buddy Mark Hassett!!

Definitely a show to visit next year.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Sounds like a very nice show.
Marlin,how did your Nova show..with those wheels?
Anyone take any digital pictures?

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

I don't like 'em, they are coming off. The other guys liked them, but I have to get different back wheels since the offset causes them to hit the quarterlips. If I find a set to match the fronts, and can get them polished up nicely, maybe I'll try them again, or maybe some XT's, or maybe some old school Cragars, or.... They looked good for this show, nobody I ran around with back in the day had the same offset wheels all the way around!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

mr70:
Board member 68l30 was taking some digi-pics, and the Mayor of Fishkill took a bunch of pics too. When I get my film developed, I will try to post some of mine as well. Very cool show, they have already scheduled next years.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Thanks Marlin.
By the way,you can drop the Mr70...Its Rick,and to everyone else as well.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Hope everyone returned home safely from the York 30 show...It was great meeting some other members and seeing their cars. Marlin, thanks for the adverisement on "Yunker" Chevrolet showing a "Hurst Dual-Gate" Yenko camaro. ....and Brian, you deserve a round of applause for getting the info out and getting us up there. I took some 35mm photos which i hope turn out...it was 800 ASA film and I will be sending you a copy of them. Thanks for a great weekend.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Great show!It was really hard to take a good picture,narrow aisles and LOTS of people.I did manage to take a few of some of the significant things that happened around the Supercar display.Hopefully they will be posted below.......

Steve

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

I do have more cars on 35mm film and more on video.It was hard to stay focused with all the quality cars and memerobilia around you.I would put this show on your MUST SEE list if you enjoy super stock racing and everything from the past.......

Steve

Mark Hassett;
You have a private message!
[img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Looks like a great turn out based on all the pictures.

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Marlin,
I just looked at the pictures from the show and I think the Deuce looks good with the Atlas wheels.

Then again, I would like the Deuce with square wheels! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Mark;
The magazine will cost you one of the famous Sausage Sandwiches from one of the Roach Coaches the next we get together at Carlisle [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
I like the '68 Motion ad right inside the front cover, and the additional article about adding the cold air induction to what looks like another '68 Motion Camaro. Good Mag!
Send me your address!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Brian; Here is a picture from one of Don's scrapbooks that I thought you and others who got to meet Ed might enjoy. Tom

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

WOW!!
What a cool pic! Where was it taken?
You can clearly see the stripe that was painted on the driver's side 1/4 panel, after the accident on the hauler when it was being delivered to Hedrick at Jenkin's shop.

Got more?!?!?!?

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Thanks for the shot!Good point on the stripe.I wonder why the body man painted it on when Ed gave him the decal?

Steve

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Even Ed didn't know why he used paint!

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Excellent. The car was being flat towed by another Yenko Camaro when it jacked knifed. It damaged the drivers quarter. The body man painted the stripe on instead of applying the decal Ed provided. I just received a letter from Hedrick today and he is going to try and come to the reunion. Is that great or what!...BKH

Re: York US 30 shaow just days away!
 

Found this pic of Ed. Looks like a Muncie under the car. Was the car originally a 4sp? I know Ed ran it in the auto trans class and the car was used in an ad for Vitar racing (auto) trans. What year did he win the AHRA title? I don't think it was 69 but maybe 70 or 71?
