. . . practically down-the-street --- at Mile Square Park . . . this Saturday
Usually manage to miss this show --- 'cause I only find out about it after
Not this time!
Flyer says that things get started ~06:30 PDST (), so . . .
+ I'm bringin' m' camera . . .
. . . + the Nasty Car
...
I look forward to vicariously attending the event thru you.
I went once, and had a blast. Good turnout, and the year I was there there were some really interesting cars. Report back!
There are a LOTTA Porsches in So Cal --- Orange County, especially . . . so I'm kinda surprised/disappointed/puzzled that this show doesn't get more attention here --- especially if you've ever seen the mobs that used to turn up for the old C&C @The Spectrum
Anyway --- I've got two battery packs charged for the camera . . . and the venue is close enough to push the Nasty Car to, so . . .
. . . lookin' forward to it!
.
And we're off!
Took the Nasty Dog out for his morning constitutional
(Oh --- he acts like he wants to go . . . but one look at those dropped rear seats and I know he'd be just miserable
S'pposed to be kinda hot today, too, so . . .
. . . he can stay home + baby-sit Sasha (the Evil House Cat)
...
Got there, like, 7-ish? . . . low-key event so . . . no tension/fear/loathing waiting to get in
Cool-enough the night-before, too, but --- I can already tell . . . Sun's gonna be blazing! . . .
. . . + I don't see a much shade
Good thing I brought a reeeeeeeeeeeeally BIG hat
..
'65 Coupe
'Gene's' had the car for ~15 years. Think I've seen this car before --- @The Channel Islands show, coupla years back, maybe?* Anyway, car was 'all there' when he got it, but --- well . . . Gene's been a busy-busy 3rd owner
* Yup --- see post #14 . . .

'73 'S'
'Dave's' car. Another 15-year owner. Bought off a Dealer's lot (!). E9SReg decal (!) . . . + check out that emission's sticker
No shots o' the interior. Dave + Co. were WAY busy prepping. And --- uh . . . I didn't even notice the VIN
(Dohp!)
One of just four MFI cars that I saw at the show . . .
. . . + one of two 'S's

Hot Rod'd 914
Super-tidy = big tires + wheels + brakes . . . all tuck'd right in . . . although I think I'd 've slotted them rotors. Other neat touches = teensie - weensie pass-side rear-view. Paint is especially nice. Not usually fond of 'pearl' paint finishes but this one's delish. All-black wheels are a 'meh' but/still, this little car is . . .
. . . neisenteit
Feeling a bit of a 914 thing starting, here . . .

Last o' the Air-cooleds . . .
. . . + still a beautiful car. Interesting to see one o' these next to a Longhood. Gives some idea just how much these cars changed over time
Not the sportiest car, maybe --- but . . .
. . . gulp! . . . collectible, now?
