Event Coverage Billet Proof Nor CAL -Some Good Some Not

I was there all weekend.........BEST one yet!!

 

thanks man, it wasnt about a piece of the pie and isnt, we were glad to get together with friends and make new ones all weekend!!!!

yes, there were some cars we have no idea about how the hell they ever got in, but theres a lot of cars coming through those gates, and i promise you all next year, we'll be in more of a swing of things and will keep a much better eye out.

and thanks for all the kind (and not so kind) words fellow hambers, it gives us a good guage for next years show!

 

they've never been excluded.

 

Thanks to all of you who post pics for us yahoos that cant go!

 

My first billetproof was was in Alameda I think it was #3 only missed one (the duster bowl) since then and it has most definetely changed. I will say that at the one in Alameda I did not like all the cars, I can also say that at this year #13 I did not like all the cars either. But I did like at least a 100 or more cars-thought they were badass in fact! Thats probably 10% of the 1,000 cars there no different than any other show. I usually "dig" only about 10% I just dont get the burning man art car thing??? tradition and inovation is what I am into, cars have to have some taste and some class or I walk right on by. Instead of bitchin build a bad ass car and bring it or stay home and let the show fade into memories of what was cool that became lame. Next year I will go and try to out do what i drove this year cuz thats what its all about anyways that goes for all the shows we go to.
Just my 2 cents

Remember there was some Shitty stuff built in the 50-60 t's

 

Looks like another great show. Looks like Alan and the Dragoons pulled off another winner of a show. From the pics, it looks like a ton of cool rides. Couple of oddballs too but that's what keeps it all interesting. Nice going guys! And thanks to all for the pics.

 

COOL Thanks

 

Looks like another successful Billetproof goes into the record books... Can't see the pics except on my iphone at work (blocked), but from what I can see on it, it looks they they have some nice cars in CA too!

Thanks for taking the effort for posting all the pics and the video. I just missed the Mobtown Greaseball in my town (was in Mexico on vacation), and it's threads like these that make missing such cool events a little more tolerable.

I know there's a lot of talk about there being too many Rat Rods at shows and on the streets, but what if you're running your ride that way because you can't afford to run it real pretty? That's the case with me- I wish I had a pretty ride, and am working on it, but for now, it looks like it's lived a hard 44 years.

I dunno, I just think it's cool that there are still a lot of old cars running around, and being shown at events like Billetproof. I'm in Phoenix right now, and there are a ton more old rides here then I've ever seen in Baltimore. Pretty cool.
