BUDDY JORDAN “RENAISSANCE” ROADSTER SWEEPS GOLDMARK TITLE AT ROADSTER SHOW
Boise, Idaho…Buddy Jordan and his “Renaissance” Roadster earned top honors at the 46th edition of the O’Reilly Auto Parts Boise Roadster Show. The ISCA event took place at Expo Idaho. Presented by Les Schwab, the three-day Summit Show Car Series event attracted an outstanding field of exhibitors from eight states.
The remarkable 1933 One-Off Roadster that won the Ridler award at the Detroit Autorama in 2017, won the coveted Goldmark award. The handbuilt rod was constructed at Steve’s Auto Restoration by leader Steve Frisbie and his team.
Local builder Kenny Welch was presented the 36th Master-Builder honor. The special presentation has been made to builders and supporters of the Roadster Show dating back to 1982
The overall Best Club display was earned by the Valley Corvettes four-car display.
Selected for People’s Choice, the wild Rescue 39 Fire Truck shown by Rosario Trujillo from Rowland Heights, Calif., swept the hearts of all the fans who attended this year.
Thanks goes out to Chip Foose with Foose Design for making his first trip back to Idaho’s capital city in thirteen years. He was joined by Ken Reister who brought America Most Beautiful Roadster and Motorcycle in a stunning two-vehicle display.
We’d also like to extend a big thank you to this year’s ISCA judging staff headed up by supervisor Scott Hammon. He was joined by team-members Greg Warg, Devin Ellis and Rod Detterich.
