I can't think of a larger gathering of operating, rare and unusual vintage speed equipment anywhere. It looked like a living museum with early McCulloch blowers, unique flat head heads, Chevy and Jimmy sixes, a running Stephens OHV set up, and more. I sure hope to attend one day. Thanks for the photos.

While I do not know for certain, it appears that a "period look" is the main thing. If your car has no billet, pastel paint, tweed interiors, etc. it would easily be accepted so the cool factor seems like the main criteria.. The Climb is not a competitive event, more of a moving car show up the hill, and naturally there are other cars not participating, but only parking around town to add to the show. This is for sure on my list of things to do.

There is a reliability run on Friday morning that includes most street rods, stock cars, hot rods, etc up to '64.

The actual Hillclimb takes place on Saturday and is limited to pre-'54 vintage builds - bangers/flatheads/early Olds & Caddy/etc. Most of the reliablilty run cars are still in town, but not running up the pass as part of the official hillclimb.

Details can be found on the website: www.hotrodhillclimb.com

A great event. Mike has done an amazing job pulling this together.
