Grand National=Grand Times

It was a great time this past weekend as Pike, Swanee and I headed to Pomona for the 61st Grand National Roadster Show in Pomona. Beyond the fun of visiting with some friends, we were given unprecedented access to some incredible cars, thanks to some very good friends and talented builders...

We were honored with visits from some truly great friends, and given unprecedented access to some incredible cars, and hands-on tours of the build details by the fabricators, designers and owners!

To say the least, it was an amazing experience to pour over cars like George Poteet's Miller Hauler (HUGE thanks to Jack and Troy Trepanier Brian Stinger and Lawrence Laughlin for the in-display, close-up tour and insight!), The Rad Rides-built, Nancy and Roger Ritzow-owned Chrysler "Passion", a Jimmy Shine roadster (complete with a fantastic history lesson) and more! You'll be floored!

...figured I'd show a shot of the AMBR winner, too...

Quick Update

1969 camaro race car

Project "Sick Seconds" is getting closer to moving under its own power. The team at SunCoast Racecars has been busy putting their final touches on the car, and once out of the body shop there, the first gen-bodied missile heads on home to ProRides for the next build phase. Be on the lookout for engine build pics, as the heart of the beast is slated to be completed in about 45 days. We'll keep you posted, and you can see the earlier mill work, if you happened to miss it the first time out HERE. This is promising to be a fun build with some SERIOUS results!

In the meantime, we're all stoked and looking forward to the car's debut in the GearVendors booth at the SEMA Show (look for precise date and time info soon, as well). Currently, though, the car is available for PRI, and anyone interested in displaying the Camaro in their booth can give us a shout, and we'll make sure you get connected to do so!

Stay tuned for more, and thanks, as always for looking in!
