Williams Street Rods
Williams Street Rods is a custom manufacturer
located in Humboldt, Illinois. Terry Williams, owner of Williams Street Rods,has
been attending the Daytona Turkey Run as a vendor since 1998 where they sold
street rod parts. They’ve also been very successful in selling a lot of
complete cars at the show.
Over the years, Williams Street Rod has expanded
to a large manufacturing facility to include parts for cars, chassis, billet
aluminum on cnc’s suspension parts and more.
Terry brings 3-5 team members to the Daytona
Turkey Run to work and also enjoys bringing his family. Terry says he’s made a lot of fond memories,
which include the “big sale” as well as a gold mine find in the swap meet.
Terry enjoys driving his own 1934 Ford with a
blown bb Chevy as well as his Rat Rod.
Tim Black's 1957 Chevy 150
We became acquainted with the owner of this beautiful 1957
Chevy 150, Tim Black, when we selected his car out of hundreds of photos from
our Spring show to feature on our Daytona Beach Car Show Facebook page. Tim is a huge fan of the Daytona Turkey Run
and has been attending for 24 years!
Here are the details on this beauty ~ 1957 Chevy 150, 2 door sedan with a 5.3 ls base motor and a
4L60E trans ford 9 in with a 350 posie. The interior is blue and black tweed.
The car also has custom wheels, Dakota digital gauges, a/c power windows and
rack n pinion steering.
Tim has been working on the car
for 14 years. He would like to give a special thanks to his good friend John
Nelson, who helped with sheet metal, body work and paint. Without his help he
says he would probably still be working on it.
Tim attends both the spring and
fall shows and often brings one of his nine nephews. He also has fond memories
of attending the show with his dad and grandfather. His 12 year old son dreams of having a 73
Camaro so the tradition just might continue!
See you in November!
