Hardcore Happening 2015 Coverage: A Traditional Only Car Show With Lots of Traditionally Awesome Iron


Hardcore Happening 2015 Coverage: A Traditional Only Car Show With Lots of Traditionally Awesome Iron

(Photos by Mike Brooks) – For the last decade the crew at the Old Soul Rod Shop in LeRoy, New York has put on the Hardcore Happening, inviting everyone they know and lots of people they don’t to show up at their place with a pre-1962 hot rod, custom, bike, or truck. Celebrating the past while gathering people in modern times who really appreciate it is the theme of many shows across the country. While some may scoff at the idea of having an age bracket rule to determine who gets in and who does not, we get it. There’s a feel and an vibe that they want to maintain along with the fact that the guys at Old Soul (not surprisingly) spend lots of time with this style of old iron and these are the cars that they love.

So now that you know it will be all 1962 and down stuff, pay attention to what you are looking at. There are some really interesting and just plain neat cars in this pile of photos from turbocharged coupes to little flathead powered runners that would be riotous at events like the Race Of Gentlemen in New Jersey.

If you like your hot rods and customs traditional, these are the photos for you. Check ’em out –
