Day 5:
We started driving at 6.00 in the morning to visit 'Small Car Connection', a VW wrecking-yard in Hesperia CA this morning! A lot of new stuff out there, it's been 3 years since the last time I visited that place and they have a lot more bay windows nowdays. Good stuff, and a cool place to see!
After that we drove 1,5 hours back to Pomona to check out the So-Cal Speed Shop this morning! We got the tour, met Mr. Jimmy Shine and saw his awesome '34 Ford pickup. He also started it up, that thing is loud!
Mr. Jimmy Shine from the So-Cal Speed Shop enjoying the AirMighty Megascene including the feature of the 'Yokohama Hot Rod & Custom Show' where they had a bike and car on display which we featured in the magazine.
Than we heard there was a Hot Rod show going on also in Pomona in front of the NHRA Museum! A lot, really a lot of great cars sat there at that one place today!!
And to end the day we visited Rich Rimball's - the organiser of the Bug-In here in California - house for his anual BBQ. Here is one of the pictures I made from up on Mr. Rich Kimball's roof! Yes that's right, I climbed on his roof to get some nice overview pictures.
Thanks for the hospitality and the BBQ Rich, we had a good time!
Next up: Venice Beach, Irwindale Drag Racing and another BBQ at Matt Devine.
