(Words and photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/i><\/b>The 2015 Carl Casper show took place during some not very accommodating weather, but the turnout was still pretty good. \u00a0This year the venue offered more food vendors, seating, and set the whole West Wing of the Exposition Center for traditional-type cars, survivors, gassers, etc. \u00a0They called it \u2018Coolsville\u2019 and it was.<\/p>\n
We spent more time in there than the rest of the show which is a much larger slice of floor. \u00a0I try to hear as many stories about cars as I can and attempt to relay them as often as possible. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0One such is the black highboy tudor and the motorize bike next to it. \u00a0I was told they went to the not-ran Bonneville Speedweek this year and was rode on the salt. \u00a0Definitely something to check off the bucket list. \u00a0The hammered \u2018WTF Speedshop\u2019 \u201930 Ford appears to have been driven to the show in the slush, ice, and slop for FTW. \u00a0The chopped and channeled tudor paying tribute to the 2nd Amendment was adorned with primers and shell casings.<\/p>\n
Talking about cool \u2013 a 409 Impala and Hemi Belvedere are about as cool as any factory car could ever be. \u00a0The bare-metal coupe was off the charts with craftsmanship and vision in color, form, and functionality. \u00a0The steering appeared to be fashioned like a tractor. \u00a0The clear valve covers were something I hadn\u2019t seen in years. \u00a0The blue paint contrasted well with the other tones and textures of the bead-rolling and formed panels. \u00a0There was a lot more in Coolsville, but it was too much to put all in one gallery so you\u2019ll find more West-Wing stuff in future articles.<\/p>\n
