Spring Turkey Run Car Show

More normalcy! This past weekend, Dave, Barry, and Jim went to the Spring Turkey Run car show at the Daytona Speedway. This is the spring version of the gigantic show held at Thanksgiving. 

The guys weren't vaccinated in November, but they are now, so it was time to get back into the swing of things. Enjoy a few of the wild sights Dave saw during his day there. First up is this stretched Mazda Miata, powered by twin V-8s mounted in tandem.




A chopped and channeled 1947 Buick resto-mod.


1960s Fiat 600 gasser. Originally it had the engine in the rear.


This is an extended-extended 6 door cab mega dump hauler with four gas tanks (Dave thinks there were 4 more on the other side too).


A typical vendor's rig set up to spend the weekend at the swap meet.


This vendor had a beautiful array of mid-century Route 66 motoring memorabilia. 

Mean green late 50s Ford Fairlane. Notice the custom exhaust tips...



A Ford Model T doctor's coupe with three 2 barrel carbs.


A street legal tow car with a matching Legend class race car. It was powered with a Honda CBR1100. Plus there was a matching kiddie car!


Now hopefully we will be going to the original Turkey Run in the fall!
