I agree. That '56 is better suited for "Custom Rod of the Year" and that is usually chosen in Des Moines

I started going to all the major Goodguys events in the '90's and generally the Street Rods were up to '49 or in that area yet likely lower, the Custom Rods were late '40's and '50's and Street Machine would be the Musclecar types.

The '56 Ford is perfectly suited for Des Moines and the "Custom Rod of the Year" competition.

The "Custom Rod of the Year" was selected at Des Moines years ago but is now selected as a finalist at this event and the overall winner is selected from various other events including Des Moines presently.

There's a KILLER rendering along with a progress picture of a 69 Camaro being built by Greening Automotive in the latest issue of Camaro Performer.

Did any body see it?

If I read it right, they are shooting to debut it at Columbus. Maybe Steve can shim in and give us the scope.

Another on of Erci Brockmeyer's design. That guy does killer work.

I think Pinkees Rod Shop was planning on taking the mustang and camaro they had taken to the GNRS! Both subtle cars with over the top details! I've always loved Pinkees style and quality of their builds.
