It is amazing to me that we still cannot come up with someone who might have pictures of any one of those Westchester County Center Hot Rod Shows events… I can’t believe it…!

My father exhibited his restored ’32 Ford Roadster there one year only because I bugged him to do it and I had a free admission card to go along with it. He was not a hot rodder but he did masterfull restorations on V-8 Fords from the 1930’s This is his ’32:

He also did a ’35 Convertable Sedan ( very rare):

Then he did a ’36 Phaeton and another ’32 Roadster. After that he did a ’36 Cord.

Some of my old buddies on this board have seen them.

coming in from the port chester n.y. side or from norwalk thru darien into stamford on the post road or as we know it as u.s.1 the only retail or harley-davidson shop back in the 60s was j.r. ransom cycle sales in riverside ct on the post road. nobody here in stamford had a custom bike or chopper shop until the later 60s .or anybody i can think of named john ?fastlane 😳

i think you are referreing to johnny weigold . he was the triumph dealer before jim fenell took over the dealership they were right next door to each other both on the left side . this gotta be him . i now remember that he worked on and had some of the older harleys too. his brother in law is frankie wasco from the cove area . he had a bad ass xlch too. all chrome with a souped up motor built by ole r.b. robert blackson from greenwich down on hamilton ave near the arnolds bakey or coming in from portchester on the delavan ave side off exit 2 . chris fastlane .

Hi Everybody…..Hope all is well and wanted to let you know Cheryl and I are doing okay. There is not a day that goes by that he is always in our thoughts and hearts. Fathers Day is approaching and I thought a nice gift to our Bill would be shaing these pictures I found of the Super Pumpkin at the Westchester County Car Show. I check out the Dover website every now and then…..feel free to post them if you like on the forum my gift to all the fathers and followers of the Super Pumpkin. Love you all….

Donna

…………looks like little Cheryl and Billy had his Dover Photos on display….[edit dino]
