GAS MEN Chuck Lipka (near lane) and Don Moyer hike up the front wheels in their classic Willys gassers as part of the Geezer Gassers competition during the Holley National Hot Rod Reunion. Lipka’s ‘41 Willys bears the names of his wife, Marcella, and their dog, Sophie, in old-school lettering to mimic the legendary Stone, Woods & Cook gasser. Meanwhile, Moyer went with the rat rod look for his blown-gas “Rebel Reaper” entry. Both drivers laid down smokey burnouts and high-flying wheelstands for the nostalgia fans throughout the four-day event.
