1934 Ford Truck built ground up by Ed Riley of Crosby,Tx. This truck has 350 hp Chevy LS1 Motor and weighs 2500. The truck was built to drive on the street, go to the Car Shows, and just have fun.
Bradford built up some custom wheels for Heather's Rockcity. All the bikes for the show used Velocity wheels; for Heather we opted for the Velocity Aero laced to some low-flange single-fixed hubs from Phil Wood & Co.
In 1967 the Ministry of Transport commissioned a fleet of seven custom-built Bedford vehicles to go around the country promoting British production techniques. Only one bus survives and it took the current owner Ollie Halls five years to retore the mobile cinema to it's pristine condition. The Vintage Mobile Cinema seats 22 in comfort and has a state-of-the-art HD digital projection unit. Above the cab there is ( for the 1960's ) a futuristic-looking clear Perspex dome.

Florida - Madeiras Beach. I don't know if it's the owner sitting behind but he looks like he fits the bill!

I mean, it looks like it is owned by either an arrogant architect who custom-built it in the 80's, or it's home to a cocaine-addicted lawyer who picked this neighborhood for its total obscurity.

Buescher's Bell, Triangle and Tuning Fork "True-Tone" logo, stamped on the third valve case. Buescher had used that logo since about the 1910s.
This rather unusual car/truck was at the show, a rather nice looking pickup conversion on a Ford PInto, it seems to be a good quality job on the custom conversion...

The Model 235's receiver differs from those on all prior Buescher horns. Note how it gradually tapers out to its mouth, which lacks a rounded bushing.
The Model 235 and the Aristocrat Custom Built Models 236, 237 and 238, all in production at the same time, were all fitted with receivers of this type.
I don't know anything about the receiver's specs, or if it really differed from the receivers on other Buescher instruments of the time in any way other than its appearance. Presumably it and the mouthpipe assembly's specifications were different.

The Model 215 was loaded with Buescher's bottom-sprung "Pin" style valves, similar to the valves Buescher had been using in the Aristocrat and Custom Built models since the 1930s.
Instead of being guided by a "star" type guide at the top of the valve, there is a lug milled into the side of the valve itself that fits into a groove cut into the valve casing's inside wall.
Buescher's pin valves seem to be very durable; I've played a number of Buescher's Custom-Built horns from the '30s that were in physically terrible shape - except for the valves!!
This horn was made before Buescher became dedicated to making student level instruments and it still tried to offer up professional level horns. It was very well constructed.
However it didn't sound like the earlier Buescher cornet models I've played.
Most Buescher horns tend to play dark, as did this one. It was really dark, and really loud. But the tone didn't have the brightness or sizzle around the edges like the Model 275 cornet or the dense richness of the earlier Custom Built cornets.
It didn't sound bad, it just didn't have what I liked in Buescher's earlier horns. If you had handed it to me to play blindfolded, I wouldn't have guessed it was a Buescher horn.
Buescher's bottom-sprung "Pin" valves. You can see the "pin" on the left-most valve, at the top; it's a small lug milled or brazed onto side of the valve. It fits into a groove cut into the side of the valve's wall.
These have been pulled from a 1935 "Aristocrat Custom Built" Model 235 trumpet.
The Aristocrat Custom Built horns were engraved with a more elaborate pattern than on the base line Aristocrat model trumpets. They are all engraved in an Art-Deco inspired pattern; a style Buescher started using in the early '30s.
Ron Cravens with Dad's first place-winning Class XII home-built trailer and custom-restored Gold Wing at Wing Ding XVII, presented by the Gold Wing Road Riders Association (GWRAA),1995 in Greenville, South Carolina; this is following that award, in the Christmas parade in Henderson, Kentucky that same year. The corvette trailer top popped up and the luggage went inside. It got a lot of attention, needless to say. Here is an even better photo.
