| IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHERE I GET MY COLLECTABLE SURFBOARDS
READ
THIS. |
| Welcome to my SurfRods ( Board Room ) Vintage and
Collectible Surf Boards. I started selling surfboards about 1982 in Santa
Cruz, Cal. at the Sky View Flea Market & Drive-in Theater.
I fell in love with the
boards and learning to Surf. Basicly my life was working at the Flea
Market Surfshop Saturday & Sunday and surfing 5 days a week.
It was a GOOD
job." I've had worse" About 1987, I decided
to open a brick
& morter store. I found a store on Seabright St. by the yacht
harbor in Santa Cruz and opened SeaBright Surf. It was an all used
boards Surf shop. We also let new shappers sell their boards
there. I stocked 100 boards. We sold the store in 1989
and moved to Colorado. We bought some land with rental
cabins on it. Its right next to the Rocky Mountain National Park, about 50
feet from the Big Thompson River .
So
if you would like to have a cabin right next to the Park let me know.
See
my add on this web site ( Cabins ). I brought about 130 surfboards with me.
Its a long story. So now I sell surfboards to HotRodders who show with their cars,
mostly Stationwagons & Woodies. I am always looking for old
boards. The junk is what I like the most. We have traveled from
Seattle to
San Diego, going to as many Surfshops as we can find, looking for boards.
We have also been from Corpus Christy ,Texas around the coast to
Florida & up to New York. We have set up our SurfShop in 19
differant states over the last 5 years, at about 100 different Car
Shows. The amount of cars at these shows range from 1000 to 10,000
HotRods. With that many peple, every once in a while someone will come up to
me and say "hey I moved here from the coast about 20 or 25 years ago
and I brought my old board. Would you like to have it". I love
those days!. So what you see below are boards I have aquired in my
travels. I will be listing about 50 boards as I have the time. Thank You for
taking
the time to read this. I am sure it well give you a better appreciation for
what you are about to see. Again we thank you for your
interest, Aloha,,,,,,, John & Linda Hanak |
