Former Gasser racer and 1966 National C/Gas class camp Bill Carroll drove his ’48 Anglia street rod all the way from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to be on hand at Henderson’s Hall of Fame Weekend. Bill’s Anglia uses a 350 Chevy and 700R4 transmission, and he clocks thousands of miles each year attending car events. A classic hood ornament adorns this 1947 Packard sedan street rod. Late 40’s Packards make terrific upscale street rods offering comfort and style. This tasty pair of vintage Packard street rods showed very well at the Show & Shine segment of the Hall of Fame Weekend in Henderson. The 50’s era Nash Metropolitan was a sub-compact, two-seat car made famous by a 50’s song titled: “Beep-Beep”. This example was expertly restored and driven nearly every weekend. What’s not to like about any ’57 Chevy? This 150 Model had striking black and white paint and lots of great detailing. Many racers favored the lighter sedans over the Bel-Air Sport Coupe. This lovingly restored and finished ’57 sees plenty of street mileage on weekends. Late-Great” Chevy’s from 1958-67 are now very desirable for comfortable street machines ready for any long-haul trip. This ’63 Impala SS was 327 Chevy V-8 powered. Trunk space in these cars is enormous! Flames are hot, especially when they’re applied as expertly as on this early Chevy truck. Later model V-8 power and lots of accessory upgrades make this an extra special street rod. Flames are hot, especially when they’re applied as expertly as on this early Chevy truck.

A 1933 Plymouth, ’39 Chevy and a ’36 Ford found a quiet place to hang-out during the Show & Shine Saturday in Henderson, NC. The big and little were displayed by this unlikely grouping of a ’63 Chevy Impala, with 3x2 intake manifold and 327 V-8 power, a ’57 Chevy and a ’52 Nash Metropolitan.
