Hot Rod Power Tour
East Coast '98

On 19 Oct 98, the power tour stopped in Gaithersburg, Maryland and yours truly had a front row seat. It was quite a site.  We got to the fair ground around 3:30 PM and the fair ground was filled with several brightly colored 18 wheelers belonging to corporate sponsors including Classic Chevy Int'l, Hot Rod magazine, Holley, BF Goodrich, and Edelbrock to name a few.  Of course Classic Chevy was showing off that beautiful '57 Bel Air Giveaway Car

CCI's experts did a great job on the entire car...it is a true showcase of the possbilities you can achieve with the numerous products available for the Classic Chevys...!!  And they are going to give it away...!! 


The engine bay holds a true work of art!! ...lots of pricey billet, A/C, and disk brake power booster

  

We even got to hear the yellow Bel Air roar to life and watch it drive around the fair ground... after all, this is a cruise!  It has a great stance with 17" Billet wheels (big bucks $$), flawless paint job, and lots of billet in the cockpit!!  


.... There was a huge selection of hot rods making the cruise!  Naturally, I gravitated to the Classic Chevys.  This very sharp gray '57 Bel Air with California tags was looking fine and caught my eye!  It had a cleaned hood, no scripts and shaved rockets, four wheel disk brakes, a sweet and low stance, with a very clean interior. Unfortunately, the driver had the hood down so we couldn't peak at the power plant.

Here's another fine Hot Rod making the Power Tower.... See, I check out all Hot Rods not just 55-57 Chevys!
