2012 was my 2nd trip to the Lonestar Roundup. This time I figured I'd take my camera to Congress for some kool night shots. Great idea on Thursday, too many people on Friday or Saturday. Anyways here are some of my favorites from that experiment, all hand held shots, I should have taken the tripod!
It's been awhile since I've released a new video. I have the footage shot for 2 more but I'm waiting to time their release with those vehicles feature articles in magazines. Until then and for the new people here are the first two.
Episode 1 is all about the car that is featured in the Limited Edition Poster #1. Episode 1:Jack Marinelli tells the story behind his historic hot rod. A
29 Model A on 32 frame with a 46 drivetrain, this hot rod was build in
the mid 50's and sits today almost exactly the way it did then. This car
is no enclosed trailer princess that sits in a museum, it is driven,
and driven like it's stolen. Music by Pushrod www.pushrodengage.com This

Episode 2: Jeff Myers (owner of Premier Body
& Paint in Arkansas City, KS) takes us for a ride in his Custom 63
Galaxie and tells the story of the car and it's build. Music by The
Rumblejetts www.rumblejetts.com
More videos on the way as the vehicles near their publication dates! Stay tuned and I'll see you at a show!
First off, I'm not going :( booooooooooo! I did attend in 2010 and overall I liked the show. For those that don't know the show, it's Viva Las Vegas. Held every year on Easter weekend in Vegas at the Orleans Casino. I'm guessing it's too late for you to go but I'm sure that there will be plenty of coverage floating around by Monday, I'll get some of my favorites and share them with you. When I went the crowd was intense both in numbers and in the literal meaning. Sooooo
many people who were more into the rockabilly than the car show, but
hey that's kool as long as you respect the cars and the people who
build/own them. The plan this year was for a massive caravan from Wichita to Vegas for Viva then to Austin for the Roundup and back... now it looks like I'm rolling to Texas solo where I will meet up with some friends and finish the trip to Austin.
