Bakersfield,Ca. Hot rod Reunion 2007







Wow, all the old guys are getting older . We came here about 8 years ago, this thing has really gotten a lot bigger.
A lot more cars, and a lot more folks watching.
Tommy Ivo, Don Garlits, Beebee muligan,Glass slipper, Don Purdomme, Vagabond,Champion Speed shop plus many more.
We watched a lot of these cars in the 60s it is neat to see them again.
It is sort of funny watching ole guys working on the cars, they drop things,shake etc. It is a wonder the cars make it 1/4 mile but they do and do it well.
We have seen a lot of history here this weekend.
