San Marino Motor Classic
It was a 2 show kind of weekend. Saturday was the gassers event at ZADM and Sunday was the San Marino Motor Classic. This is more of a concours event but also not. It is always a fun time at Lacy Park and this year’s was one of the largest I’ve seen there.
Gassers 8 at the ZADM
Saturday I headed over to The Zimmerman Automobile Driving Museum (man that’s a mouthful) for the awesome Gasser event they have almost every year. This time it’s Gassers 8 and the street and parking lot were filled with all kinds of gasser goodness along with a couple of drag cars and cool hot rods.
Reunion Car & Moto Show
In their second year the Reunion Car & Moto Show was another success. So I realized when I got home I did more hangin’ out with friends then take pictures.
Main Street El Segundo Car Show
This show is always a great time. The show is in Downtown El Segundo on Main Street and spans multiple blocks filled with cool cars and trucks.
Nosed and Decked Chopped and Dropped Party
Nosed and Decked along with Roxanne’s Bar in Long Beach put on the Chopped and Dropped Party and it was a blast. Customs came from as far as the San Diego area. The parking lots and streets were filled with so many cool cars and the bar was filled with friends old and new.
Early Risers: Donut Derelicts 7-23-22
Always a fun way to kickoff a Saturday at the world-famous Donut Derelicts. The weekly show is always a blast and in my many years of going only a few have had a small turnout. This last Saturday’s show was not one of them. The place was packed, just packed.
War Surplus on Wheels
Saturday I headed to the Lyon Air Museum in Santa Ana for the fantastic War Surplus on Wheels car show. This incredible show was put together by Bobby Green of Old Crow Speed Shop and he put together 130 cars that took over the tarmac outside the museum plus some very cool bellytank landspeed race cars inside.
Mooneyes Open House 2022
Saturday’s shenanigans were not far from my place in Whittier. Just a short drive to Mooneyes and their always fun yearly Open House.
LA Roadster Show 2022
A Fathers Day holiday weekend tradition is back after a hiatus. I’m so happy that it’s back and I spent Saturday hangin’ out at the Fairplex in Pomona, CA checking out the awesome roadsters and so many other cool rides that came out for the show.
Customs Cruise Riverside
So after a fun day at the Lions Automobilia Museum, I finished off Saturday at the Customs Cruise in Riverside. The Customs Cruise is always such a great time and this time it moved to Riverside right in front the the historic Riverside Court House.
Lions Automobilia Museum - Funny Car Fever
A fun time at the Lion Automobilia Museum for their Funny Car Fever event. Such a wonderful museum and worth a visit.
Aces Hot Rod Resurrection
One of my favorite shows every year is the Aces Hot Rod Resurrection car show. Last Saturday I headed down to Old World Village in Huntington Beach, California for the fantastic car show put on by the Aces Car Club.
Cool Cruise
Saturday morning I headed over to La Verne, California, home of my college alma mater University of La Verne and the annual Cool Cruise.
Early Risers: Donut Derelicts 4-2-22
Saturday morning I headed down to Huntington Beach, CA for the world-famous Donut Derelicts. Rarely, rarely does it disappoint with all kinds of fantastic hot rods, customs and more. This was one of those fantastic ones.
Ford Model A Breakfast
With so many shows around Southern California it’s no surprise I miss a few here and there but somehow I missed this awesome show all the damn time. It’s one of those shows I see on social media or hear about it from friends after the fact. But not this year!
Women N Wheels at ZADM
Saturday I headed over to El Segundo, CA to the Zimmerman Automobile Driving Museum for the Women N Wheels Car Show. A wonderful show originally started by my friend Pati and held at El Camino College before it was moved to The Zimmerman.
Customs Cruise in San Dimas
Another fantastic Customs Cruise! Last Saturday I headed over to the flash-mob/rave style automotive event that happens every few months. This time it moved to Old Town San Dimas.
Lost Souls Getdown
Saturday I headed over to San Pedro to checkout this year's Lost Souls Getdown. Now in its 5th year, the show like the last few was awesome.
Early Risers: Donut Derelicts 2-12-22
Saturday I headed down to Huntington Beach for the world-famous Donut Derelicts. It was packed, packed.
Grand National Roadster Show on the Outside
On Saturday the Grand National Roadster Show fills all around the buildings with awesome hot rods, customs, classics and more. It was such a great turnout of cool rides.
