Steve and Debbie Hellas put together this spectacular '59 Bel Air that looks even longer when it's sitting down on the deck...

...Under the hood is a fully dressed 348 ready to propel the winged '59 during takeoff.

John Hall has an ace up his sleeve with every Flathead fan's favorite engine: an Ardun overhead converted Flattie somewhat under the hood of his '32 Fordor.

This '33 Ford coupe's owner didn't put his info in the window so we will just have to let him know here that we love the stance of this killer trad ride.

Tom Carter runs a 429/C6 combo in his rare and cool '37 Lincoln Zephyr coupe.

With a little work and a fist full of dollars, this Deuce sedan could be back next year looking good and turning heads.

Eddie Johnson was lucky enough to start with a very solid '30 Chevy coupe before switching direction on the restoration and turning the Bow Tie into a super-fine hot rod. Made up of a completely wood inner structure with the exterior tin attached to it, most of the examples from this era did not survive the elements and time.

Larry and Madge Ahle get around in luxury style in their '52 Oldsmobile 98 convertible, and keep up with traffic with a '93 Vette mill providing the power.

This bad-to-the-bone '55 Chevy gasser had all of our troops stirred up for the entire weekend. Once nearly extinct, nose-up street machines have made a huge comeback.

Looking like a predator waiting to strike, this '58 Buick "more-door" has a right-on stance and clocks in very high on the cool meter.

Jim Burker owns this '29 Model A highboy we instantly fell in love with. With a chrome '29 radiator shell up front and a fully dressed Flathead for power, this sweet ride is very reminiscent of Bud Bryan's ol' R&C project car.

Roger and Jackie Murphy swing low in their ground-hugging '47 Ford coupe.
0512Rc Columbus 08 Z
Jevan Morse proves with his '32 Ford pickup that when asked "how low can you go?" it can be pretty darned low.
0512Rc Columbus 09 Z
Here's proof that hardly anything beats a nice "Pair of Deuces."
