    Uptown cruise. Downtown style.

    One of the oldest, still functional clubs in the US. Their annual street bash is a must attend event locally. This Saturday the 10th, 10-4. If you like traditional shit, this is the show for you. I'll be there bright and early. One of the best damn car shows around. Hoodlums taking it to the streets of the couve. Let's roll.

    Dang, If I had the box with wheels running I'd boogie down there at Early 30 On Saturday just to play Camera guy for that. The F250 is too slow and drinks too much gas.

  7. Have fun! Should be a great show as Slo Poks always do a good job. Gonna stay on my side of the river for cars and coffee and then a hot rod bbq for a buddies birthday.

    Heading north though next weekend for the ilani casino show on Saturday and then Kalama the next day with Taboo.

    The city closes and blocks off Main Street for the Slo Poks event. 15 bucks and some school supplies is the cost of entry

    The 36 was built by Slo Pok Neil Brislawn Sr. RIP. His son Neil Jr brought it out. I’ve known that car for 30 years or more.

    It was pretty cool. I'd guess 80 or so cars on Main street. More on the side streets and parking lots. Most HAMB worthy. Some big wheel rigs, but most fit our interests. We had a blast. Great food, great folks, great Fords. This is a must attend event locally.

    The Slo Poks put on quite the show every year. I heard there were a lot of shows to choose from yesterday but the Uptown Cruise never disappoints. A few muscle cars but mostly our kinda hot rods all on a tree lined street with plenty of restaurants, bars and even a bustling dispensary.
