Haha well at this moment it is getting a little upholstery work done by the talented crew at M and M and if we are in the Columbus area in a few weeks we might be able to swing by and hang out for a bit ......
I am glad to see people doing the fords as there are not many nice ones out there! I just hope that mine is as well recieved as the suncammer and the red/burgandy 56 club sedan that was at GG Colorado.
Whats the break off year for street machine and street rod of the year because they pick it aswell at columbus!
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 Street Rods go through 1948. Street Machines are 1949 and up although I cannot remember many in the SMOY contention older than the mid1950s. I know Denny Terzich's 56 Chevy won years ago and there were a few 55s in there contending as well. Alloway also won with a first gen. T-Bird too. I do not know what the difference in qualifications are between Custom of the Year and Street Machine of the Year. Can a car compete for both?
Are the Ring Bros. going to have a car or two in contention?
Is Troy bringing anything this year? Maybe The Torino?
