I never thought I'd see a restored Sport Satellite at the Grand National...
not very exciting, a 383 and auto, but it's the same sunfire yellow with magnum 500s and black vinyl top as my R/T.. so for me it's an interesting comparison of very similar 1969 Mopars
I've seen this truck before, but didn't notice the side last time

this is now for sale, http://taylorstreetrods.com/carsforsale/1972chevroletc10truck.html
unrestored, uncustomized, and not a rat rod. Just cool.
If a piece of shit 77 anything had the fenders and bumpers removed, and the windshield chopped... it would never be regarded as a "custom" by anyone with dignity. And that is why I used the word uncustomized in the post title. The two guys who've commented both pointed out the windshield chop.. yeah, it's got that, but that ain't enough to get me to call it customized. No one else has noticed yet the suicide doors (cause they are perfect) and I don't think a 33 - 34 Ford had suicide doors... but I am going to stick to my guns even if no one else agrees. Not a "custom". No fabricated this or that, dropped over the frame, newish power train, trick headlights, rake, Barris touches, Westergard grill, Carson top, etc etc ad infinitum et nauseum

the Bonneville streamliners and land speed racers from the 2014 Grand National Roadster Show
Above, Stutz Blackhawk full write up at http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/10/no-info-was-with-this-streamliner-so-if.html
this was the first I've heard of Cummings Diesel in the Indy 500, and land speed racing. (Daytona Beach for the example below)
