As mentioned in part one of this year’s Megaspeed Coverage the show itself was a little bit smaller than last year, but since it houses imports, euros, trucks, muscle cars, rat rods, and hot rods all under one roof it’s still a pretty good time and a welcome break from the doldrums of what appears to be a never ending winter.
In today’s coverage Drake and myself branch off from the tuner hall and check out the rest of the show which predominately features classics, trucks, hot rods, rat rods and muscle cars as well as a few other oddball vehicles here and there.
Smack dab in the middle of the main hall was last years grand champ, The Boothill HaulerThis just might just be the first Ford Falcon Ranchero to ever be posted here on Stance Is EverythingPretty wild Factory 5 sitting in the main hallThis years show had a couple very nice looking (Pro Mod?) drag cars in the front hall like this 68 Camaro……this 68 Shelby looked incredible as well
Two timeless examples of quintessential Fords
One day I’ll have to find out if the 1:1 came before the models or vice versaThis 1950 GMC in the main hall got quite a bit of attention this yearIt’s a pretty good looking truck provided you don’t take objection to crafted patina
I believe the story went that the truck originally belonged to an excavation company in Mexico, and you can just barley make out the original logo on the doorIf you check out the latest edition of Canadian Hot Rods magazine there is a feature on this beautiful Torino inside written by yours truly……not to toot my own horn or anything
This was kind of weird, can’t say I’ve seen a kitted bus before and personally I would have forgone the kit and just laid the bastard out
I feel like if the rear tires tell a tale this 56 International Harvester might be a bit of a sleeper…I actually somehow managed to completely miss this so I am glad Drake caught it
Last time I saw this car was at the Roadmates Corn RoastCall me immature if you wish, but I love this rad cap!This 502 was found under the hood of an 87 S-10Great looking mill that can no doubt pull a few stumpsMy photo of this truck ended up being pretty soft so I am glad Drake got a shot of itGeoff’s Mazda is a Megaspeed regularMegaspeed can be a long weekend for competitors… as Geoff illustrates hereGary actually just put this truck up for sale so that he can move onto something new
After looking at this truck several times I have concluded that this is one my favourite s10s ever built
It’s got a lot of really awesome details embedded throughout and is as straight as an arrow
Going to end things off today by running through the impressive line up of vehicles from the Distorted Visions Car Club
These were easily some of the most talked about vehicles of the entire show…
..and for good reason because they were really like none other there
As you can tell both Drake and myself thoroughly enjoyed this 51 Ford
Jeff’s 52 was a last minute addition to the Distorted Vision line up for 2014 and I was personally pretty damn stoked to see it in person
The fabrication work is incredibly impressive, more so than the pictures can illustrate
I like how you dont stick to one scene you branch out and photograph weirder stuff. i just wanted to know what that gear with it looks like some kindof air tool running a chain linking it to the exhaust was. just curious it looks like a cut off for the exhaust to run straight headers or muffled.

haha first off thanks for the compliment.
Second that is exactly what it appears to be. I didn’t get a chance to talk to the owner but I feel fairly confident that is what it was!
