MSCC AUGUST 2 STAR OF THE WEEK: ANYONE INVOLVED IN SUPER RUN 2015

Today is the last day for Super Run 2015/Rock’n Red Deer.

MSCC will have a complete 2-part report on this incredible event tomorrow and Tuesday but for now the show is still going on out at the Westerner Grounds.

A show like this is the net result of hard work and intelligent planning so the organizers can take a big round of applause from the thousands of people who attended this event on Saturday.

The other side of the show is the old iron because without the old iron you don’t have a show.

This MSCC Star of the Week is simple-it goes out to the people who run first class car shows like Super Run 2015 and the people who invest blood, guts and a boatload of money in their classic rides.

 

MSCC AUGUST 1 STAR OF THE DAY: MID-SUMMER MAGIC IN MOTION

There’s nothing like an incredible July summer evening to make everything in life a lot better.

This is top down weather at its finest so any opportunity to drive a classic ride is a welcome departure from reality.

Air conditioning is provided by nature not technology on a night like this.

Today’s MSCC Star of the Day is a great example of mid-summer magic in motion.

 

 

MSCC JULY 31 STAR OF THE DAY: THE BEST KIND OF TRAFFIC JAM

Traffic jams are definitely not fun.

Most people prefer a bad case of the flu over gridlock on the road.

There are exceptions to the hate traffic jam rule and one of them takes place every three years when the Super Run hits town.

This MSCC Star of the Day is the best kind of traffic jam—a Super Run traffic jam last night.

 

MSCC JULY 30 STAR OF THE DAY: ‘39 FORD—OUT FOR A RIP BEATS BEING PARKED

Most car guys agree on this point.

You build a car to drive it so bugs in your grill and chips in your paint are badges of honor.

Old rides are works of art but unlike the Mona Lisa you drive the wheels off these masterpieces.

This MSCC Star of the Day ’39 Ford was out for rip this week because out for a rip beats being parked—every time.

 

MSCC JULY 29 STAR OF THE DAY: ’67 MUSTANG GASSER—WHEN A MUSTANG ISN’T COOL ENOUGH

 

29 IMGP7265

 

The Mustang was an earth shaker in 1964 when it debuted and it definitely had the cool factor.

This was an era when Beatlemania dominated the news but this quirky little re-skinned Ford Ford Falcon stole the Fab Four’s thunder.

Mustangs basically became a cultural icon in ’64.

This MSCC Star of the Day Mustang gasser is for when a basic Mustang just isn’t cool enough.

 

 

MSCC JULY 28 STAR OF THE DAY: A FIREBIRD MAKES ITS OWN UNIQUE STATEMENT

The Firebird was the debut of Pontiac’s pony car.

This was a hotly-contested market back in the 60s and it still is in 2015.

Pony cars never disappeared—they just evolved.

This MSCC Star of the Day Firebird was Pontiac’s own unique statement in the pony car world.

 

 

MSCC JULY 27 STAR OF THE DAY: ’66 PLYMOUTH VIP—PLYMOUTH GOES UPTOWN

Plymouth was in a fistfight with Ford and Chevy for decades.

They were all entry level brands for the guy who wasn’t quite up to buying Buicks, Mercurys or Dodges.

Plymouth was known for its no-nonsense, affordable and reliable cars but Ford and Chevy added the upper end LTD and Caprice to the lineup so Plymouth had to counter with their own top shelf model.

This MSCC Star of the Day ’66 Plymouth VIP is a rare example of how Plymouth went uptown in ’66.
