Frosty replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionThe 1977 Buick LeSsbre low rider was cool. It reminded me of the 1978 Buick LeSsbre Custom 4-door my folks and I once owned. It was as blue inside and out. It had a Pontiac 301 2-barrel in it. It was a good car. It Justa was wasn’t sexy or fast -
JUSTA6 replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionSorry, had such a flame on tude about being a spectator. I'm sure I wasn't the best company. -
Frosty replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionI admit that it was a tad strange to see JUSTA without a car at a car show. What's worse than that? He shows up without his camera too!!!!! The man who preaches how much we love pics around here to newbies came to a car show cameraless. He came as a spectator! Shame JUSTA! Shame!!!!! At least one of us can keep the faith! Okay we had about 80-100 cars. My mother-in-law claims she had a 65 1/2 convertible mustange with a straight six, red with a black top! Shish!! She may want this one! Great split window '65. Reminds me of Sam Malone's from Cheers! Great looking Edsel I love the matching push/pedal car One year only '67 Grand Prix convertible. This woman just bought this car a couple of months ago. She has wanted one since she was a teenager. Your basic black Pantera Lucy! The low riders are here!

JUSTA6 posted a topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionThis show has been around for a few years, (hosted by an old neighbor) usually held in Sept, but this was a perfect day for a rain date makeup. Perfect warm weather. Couldn't get one of my cars to fire up N go. Frosty made it. It completely filled up and I heard a number of 80 participants this year a new record. Will let Frosty tell his story N post some pic's. I only brought my lawnchair to sit in one last time this year. Here is a vid that somebody posted. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1122700760287902

indymanjoe replied to Frosty's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionI relish the thought of pickles on chic filet! -
Frosty replied to Frosty's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionYou can’t swing a dead cat around here without getting a burger with pickles. In fact, I still wanna know who at Chic-Fil-A thought pickles was a good idea on a deep fried Southern chicken sandwich. Well I am glad it didn’t come with the stomach pump. I definitely had too much fried food that day and I paid for it the next day, of sorts.

Fitzy replied to Frosty's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionYou actually ate and kept down all those 'Aussie' treats??? They should have thrown in a free stomach pump. Give me an American cheeseburger complete with pickles and I'm a happy camper. They don't put pickles on burgers here so I make my own burgers at home instead, WITH pickles. -
JUSTA6 replied to Frosty's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionNice shots. Good show.

Frosty posted a topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionI finally had a free Saturday (e.g. no Michigan home football game) so I was able to go to a car show. My buddy Chuck suggested we had slightly north to the town of Chesaning, which is home to the Saginaw County Fairgrounds (and the former Chesaning Showboat). The Dead Pedals were having their fall dust up. Obviously there were a huge Halloween them to this show. Someone in an ultra light took from the runway that is next to the fairgrounds. You don't see these mid-to-late 70s Novas much any more. A coffin car? Hmmm. A beautiful '48 Buick Roadmaster Hearse. This was a cool C-cab that was built back in the 70s for the show car circuit. This was my lunch choice. Fitzy and Kiwi would be proud of me. d b I had the potato cake, EMU nuggets, sausage roll and Anzac biscuit. Yum!

Frosty posted a topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionMy buddy Chuck asked me to join him at the First Annual Rudy "Dr. Ru" Kutey Memorial Car Show at Baker's in Milford Michigan (near Indyman Joe's house). . "Dr. Ru" was the nickname of Rudy Kutey, a highly regarded Detroit pinstriping artist. He earned the nickname "Dr. Ru" from assembly plant workers due to his incredibly steady pulse and precision hand. He is famous in the automotive community for his exclusive work on the Plymouth / Chrysler Prowler. Between 1997 and 2002, Kutey hand-painted the distinctive pinstripes running along the upper body edges of every single special-edition Inca Gold and Mulholland Edition (Midnight Blue) Prowler. He was also flown out specifically to hand-pinstripe the very last Chrysler Prowler to ever roll off the assembly line, which later sold at a Christie's charity auction for $175,000. Kutey passed away in July 2026 at the age of 78. Family. fellow area pinstripers and car enthusiasts who knew Rudy came out. Local motorcycle builder and painter legend, Ron Finch, even came to pay tribute to Dr Ru. That ain't right for a Corvair but it is cool as Hell! Yup this is a fast truck! Stealthy boost! You don't see many soap box derby cars these days, let alone this classic. This van won Best of Show and it was stripped by Rudy. Look who showed up! Indyman Joe and Dirty Girl! This was not planned.
Frosty replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionSo here are my photos from the same car show. JustaG6's twins The FP crowd is here! Yeah! Same guy owned both the Roadmaster Estate Wagon and the Skylark. Clean GSX in Saturn Yellow You don't see the Pace Car Mustangs much anymore. GOT PLYMOUTH? A Factory Five kit car Daytona - with air conditioning A very clean boattail Riveria kustom! Low, split bumper and fender skirts. Very cool! To Infinity and Beyond! A Morris Miner convertible A gorgeous '39 Lincoln Zephyer This gentleman claims this is a 1908 Ford Model T (the first year of the Model T) and, according to him, the VIN is one of the first 1000 Model Ts every produced at the Piquette plant. If he is right, this is a rare piece of automotive history for sure.

Frosty replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionMeeting up wIth B52 and Indyman was great. I think he thoroughly enjoyed a top down tour of Wiodward and Pontiac.
JUSTA6 replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's Discussion1st time I've missed the whole weekend in quite awhile. Sounds like the meet up with B52 went OK?
Frosty replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionI wouldn’t miss Woodward. I don’t care if I have to bring my daily driver. It is about being there and celebrating our area’s unique car culture. So far, all four of my cars have done the WDC at one time or another.
JUSTA6 replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's DiscussionNice pic's as always. Sorry bout the Tims meet. I know I relayed the info that Mikes Rivy was on the rack with the 55 frame under it and W I P. Also had one of his tractors split in half and in the way, that's a Work In Progress as well. Plan was to have Beth/Mike drive the GTO. FAIL. Mel had no A/C in the G6 and wanted to get a quick cruise for shirts ect and get the twins back home before the heat. They will remember much more this year as they slept through it all last year. She made it down to Joe's tent but was dealing with leaking coolent in the rush to get home. I've had it apart and brought it home to clean, overflow was plugged and couldn't find anything wrong(way) to explain the leak that started/continued right after I installed and refilled system. New coolant tank is on order. Joe said he wasn't going to make it for an early cruise so Mel Justa said get er done. Didn't think you would go to Tim's maybe Ho Joes
