It shows an old car show with some of George Barris's work.
Some of us old timers may get a kick out of it. It just shows how long the interest has been there.

Great post! Thanks. The flamed Mercedes Gullwing is PRICELESS. Reminds me of the job Belushi did to the 911 in Animal House.

The way those trophy girls are dressed is simply scandalous! Harlots.

Great post...loved the Five Satin's in the background.

I actually have a 1957 Chevy Bel Air Custom Coupe that George built for Ringo Starr back in the '70s Yes, she's my mechanic!

Doogie,

You are going to have to come out to Donut Derelicts - http://www.donutderelicts.com/ - in Huntington Beach some Saturday morning. You will see typically 150-200 hot rods. That flame is still burning bright.

I guess I didn't notice the bashful ones, I was cracking up at the bold ones who were getting shoved away!:rofl

The flame job was done by Von Dutch.

I never heard of Von Dutch until I saw this post. I am amazed by his work.
