Fellow brother Jeff's Lincoln...

Another brother and brother of Jeff's, James' Pontiac...  He might be missing his club plaque....  If I were him, I would look under the front seat, then mount it...  That way, I wouldn't steal it again.....

I dig the flames on Franco's shoebox....

And his artwork....

12 Days of Paso Day 12

I know this post was supposed to be 12 Days of Paso, but I have to sneak a couple photos in of Paso-Maria.

If you aren't in Santa Maria this weekend, you are missing out.  Ever since about Wednesday, I have seen kool cars in town...    The Santa Maria Inn has been hopping since Thursday....

12 Days of Paso Day 10

  I have been a participant of the WCK Paso Robles show since 1990.  Ok, big deal, I know...  My point is that this is the first time that I will or should not have to work on my own car on Thursday or Friday before the show.  Normally this is kind of the first show of the year for me, or at least the one I look forward to the most.  There has been many of years, I was actually painting a car on Thursday night, and putting it together on Friday morning.  We would get to the show on Saturday, and all you could smell was solvent and fresh paint in that Paso Robles sun......  Those were the days......

This is a Wed or Thurs night in 1990....

Late at night and still painting....

12 Days of Paso Day 9

As a general rule, I do not post pictures of my own junk.   As we embark on the 30th Annual West Coast Kustoms Memorial Weekend Show, I thought I would post a couple of my 53.  Normally, I spend the days and weeks prior to the show, working on cars for others.  This year however, will end the 4 or 5 year hibernation of this car, due to a sick Y-block.  It has come a very long way from these photos, yet still has a long way to go..   Safe travels to all attending...  Looking forward to seeing you all..
