Heres 4 I took home from GNRS (was shocked that I won) especially next to the Devil Deuce, Lomas coupe, Scotts car.. all those cars rule over Live WIre in my book..

Gambino award, I can't remember the 2nd one it has no label on it, Emperors Award and Edog Award

 

There are some neat trophies here, i got this one at the Jalopyrama earlier last month for the pinstriping. Its the first trophy i got of this kind, and its pretty neat.

 

these are what i made for this years riot in oct. before final lettering




this roundy round piston and rod were awesome, wish i hadnt let it go. still had the crank journal seized into it, lol.






best in show from the savages. i wouldve liked a better skull, but i worked with what i could find, luckily it was halloween time.

 

The trophies that Mick gives out at the Stray Kat shows are really KOOL. I don't have pictures but they are neet.

I made these trophies a few years back.
I never did take any real good pic's of them.

 

I've got quite a collection of photos of Billetproof trophies over the years... will have to dig up a few.

 

Here is a group of homemade trophies that the Tech Dept. at ISU made for the Chrome in the Dome car show at Pocatello Idaho in the spring of 2008. Work on these was amazing and some even were mechanical.

 

From Beatersville last year.

 

Cheaterama 2008

 

Wow theres a lot of cool ideas for trophys out there, better than some plastic crap!!

 

I made this one for best paint... Gary

 

heres a couple ive made over the years

 

Here's one made from a Slugging wrench, won it for my Trike build.
======================================================

 

2008 Grand national Roadster Show

 

Tom Branch awarding Gene Winfield the Bean Bandits awesome home made trophy.

 

I won this at "Hell on Wheels", a Road Devils event at National Trail Raceway. The pinstriping and detail are just amazing in person. Plus it lights up!

 

A couple from the Kreatures' show here in Austin, back in September. . .

 

these are great!! I would rather have just one homemade trophy then a dozen store bought ones. maby when I get my car out of the garage in spring and go to some of these local shows. it wouldn't get put on some shelf,I would much rather have something that someone made themselves.

 

Here's some I won with my sedan I built a couple years ago

Detroit Autorama in the basement 06 and 07 best traditional Sedan

Detroit Billetproof 07 Best Hot Rod That's the one I'm most proud of




Poor Boys CC Detroit makes the trophies for Autorama and Billetproof and do the best job Lots of thanks goes out to Tim and his buddies for the outstanding job that they do

 

.



I made these up outta parts from the scrap bin, to me it's all about the V8 so that's about how they turned out...


Valves are from a V16 Cat industrial/stationary motor

Bearing cages are from an industrial turbine (Huge blower)

What looks like serpentine belt pulleys are actually Oil seals for the big blowers.

they stand between 22 and 26" high and the heaviest one weighs in right around 50 lbs.

I dropped the one with the ball bearings on my kitchen floor and now have a nice 1/2 deep smiley looking up at me.
But at least I still have all my toes

2007 GNRS SuedePalace. Nice work.

 

Hell On Wheels 2008.

 

Cool trophies, nicely finished.

That is a great trophy!

Although it's not quite an "antitrophy", one of my prized possessions is the cool restored antique cycle trophy that Darrel (Von Wierdo) Miller awarded me for my H-D Bobber at the first Greezefest.

 

here are some of the trophys i made for the fossils car show may 17, 2015

 

Here's an old award that I won several years ago. One of the nicer ones that I've seen (IMHO).
