I still have a bit more to post from the 2009 Cruisin' Nationals in Santa Maria, so let's get right to it. Up above we have a windshield-less roadster parked alongside a flamed lead sled - two machines that nicely represent the mixture of cars that packed the Santa Maria fairgrounds last weekend. This immaculate '58 Olds Super 88 is known
Alright, here's some more photos from last weekend's Cruisin' Nationals in Santa Maria. I've been finding it hard to choose which pictures I want to post here, because there was frankly too much cool stuff at this event. Typically, I'll have a pretty good idea of what I want to post as I'm walking around an event, but the Cruisin'
For 27 years, the West Coast Kustoms Cruisin' Nationals has been the place to to go to see vintage hot rod and custom cars in California. The event started off in Paso Robles, but a couple years ago the venue was moved down the road a bit to Santa Maria, a coastal town known for it's signature tri-tip steaks. Since coming back to the United
For the first part of the Mooneyes Nationals coverage I selected some American Iron that really stood out for me. Starting with the 1966 Dodge Charger above. It was the first time I have seen one up close and was impressed by that one-piece grille. Not sure how much weight the flip-around headlights add to this muscle car, but who cares when it looks
What a day today turned out to be. I got to Odaiba nice an early, not really knowing what to expect, as it was my first time covering a custom car show like the Mooneyes Street Car Nationals. The "Car Show & Swap Meet," as it was described on the Mooneyes flyer, was held at the Aomi parking area, same place where the D1-GP Exhibition will
And now for a bit more chromed and slammed goodness from last weekend's Autorama here in Fresno. As I mentioned before, a lot of the cars at this show were of the typical "street rod show car" variety, so I didn't spend too much time photographing those. It did get me thinking though, in 30 or 40 years from now, are those high tech
Contrary to popular belief, there are parts of California other than "SoCal" or NorCal". I grew up here in Fresno, which is basically halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. I like being here because I can easily jet off to any part of the state, but the automotive scene in Fresno is a bit lacking. Just as an example, the "VIP"
I have a lot of work ahead of me with all my Rev Speed Time Attack photos to sort through, but before that I wanted to post up some photos from last weekend's Yokohama Hot Rod and Custom Car Show. The machine in this photo here was my personal favorite of the entire show. It's a V8-powered gasser built out of a vintage Toyota Stout pick up truck
I feel kind of strange right now. One part of me is focused tomorrow's Rev Speed Time Attack at Tsukuba Circuit, but the other part of me is still in "hot rod mode" in the wake of Sunday's Yokohama Hot Rod and Custom Car Show. This kind of variety is what I love about cars. Anyways, here's another batch of photos from this weekend's
