    Just got back from the show it was warm and breezy in Ventura today.
    Got there about 5:45 around 6 I tried to take some photos of the cars and trucks in line only to find the battery was almost dead I got 1 dark shot then just before leaving it allowed a couple more. I got a shot of what I call a G and then the battery went dead after trying some area shots.
    Here is what we have for today.

    Today there were not as many cars and trucks but a lot of people thou. George Barris was there both days as were some other celeb's., George had a few of his cars and there were sure a lot more trailer'd packages there this go around.
    Good time no matter, sure miss just it being the Primer Nationals where hard paint jobs were sent to the parking lot.
    The camera did not holdup all day it started just wanting to do video so we just put it away. Here are some of the shots we took before 9AM.

    The wheelchair lawnmower

    Charles
    Is there a story behind the wheelchair lawnmower , just wonder. Its tiny and has litle to do with all the bling bling and other cars there but though a very creativ construction.

    It kind of fit the surrounds they had back there. Except one or two of the travel trailers there this weekend, where the chair was those trailers 3 and the motor home were from one family of brothers ,they have a business of barn finds and goods that to some are soon to be bling even if they just put it in the pickup bed.

    Charles, I love the hubcap shot! Is that your truck in the reflection? Thanks for the pictures! (One of a G that looked kind of like Wolfs, even!)

    The guy who belonged to the hub cap took it. His is the black 50 Chevy in photo 2 of the just a few post, in fact you can see the truck in that shot also. However the one at the show I liked the best was Van Zipper .
