Event Coverage ***My Pics from WCK Santa Maria 2011***

Nice photos!

 

BIG Thanks for sharing !

Been kinda stuck here this year but I really want to attend the show someday.

 

really nice . It's great to see that the era of purposely garbaged out customs and hack job hot rods is on the way out .

theses fadeaways are horrid!

 

Great pictures, thank you!

 

pictures are rad bryan! sorry i missed you guys..

 

Excellent pictures, and really cl***y cars!
Thanks much for posting.....
Cheers......

 

Oh man, I gotta disagree with you on that one. I looked that car over for a while and thought it was a really *****en car still under construction. Somebody told me it is a Paul Bragg build.

 

Very Kool koverage, Your site is one my favorite list and this is a good example
why. Thanks for posting the pictures and all of the work on the web site.

Happy Trails, Mick

 

You're probably thinking of Dave York's shoebox ford, which is actually Canadian. Same color, similar grille, front end. etc.

I only speculate because It threw me for a second too...

 

That's Paul Bragg's Merc.

I was looking forward to seeing your wagon in person....it did not disappoint! Very clean.

Ha! No unicorn this year either. My buddy, John, said that the current owner decided not to bring it at the last minute.

Yep....and in a tinted clearcoat last year. That's one of the things I love about this show...over the years, you get to watch the cars progress. A lot of us build these things in our garages, in our spare time, or whatever...so they take time.

And to address the earlier question about paint....I can count at least a dozen cars that had been painted or repainted just for this show. ****....Cepeda's El Camino was repainted and rechopped! Not to mention all work on the decklid and what used to be the tailgate...

Quality may be up, or it may be perception based on the photos....I like to take pics of nice cars.

Your LaSalle is coming along nicely...the chop kicks ***!

I think you had a good reason for missing the show Hope all's well.

 

and it's freaking amazing...

 

That's an Australian plate, isn't it? Shipped over just for the show?

 

Justin hit a few shows in the US. Amazing car.

 

Thanks. All credit to the chop to Frank DeRosa Sr and Jr. All credit of $$ from me. haha

Brian

 

Thanks for the pics....Show was a blast!

 

Thanks ! Such a pleasure to see an event thread posted by someone with taste and a good eye for perspective .....

Every time I read your screenname the drums from " Tusk " start playing in my head ...

 

Had a great time also....guess I need to change my avatar, huh john

 

Thank you Rusk !! What a treat for my kustom loving eyes !!

 

Thanks for the shot Rusk ! It's always cool seeing you Bro.

Trip out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTm_l4zatfM&feature=related

 

Great shots man!

 

Man your pics are always worth the wait! Thanks for posting them. My goal dare I say it is to have the truck and car there next year. Hopefully I didnt just jinx myself! I think the wife is getting tired of me complaining about not going so .......oh and tell me theres a pic of you skating down 5 you really gotta post it!

 

Okay....tell me what all,Paul did to his El Camino? Looks like he welded up the tailgate,made a tonneau cover out of a trunk lid,or something,and painted it! Did I miss anything? He's the craziest guy....always thinking over the top! WOW!!!!

 

Man, great coverage as always Bryan. All these customs make me want to hang up the model A project and buy another sedan! haha.

 

Chrome dash too. I was parked behind him and watched people tripping on it all day. "Is it a wagon?", "Is it a car or truck, or both?" That thing was mobbed all day. Definately grabbed you by the balls.

 

I've been lookin for an impala decklid so i could do something like this..Everytime i see this el camino he does something new to it..bad***!!..

 

Wow! Amazing stuff. Thanks for sharing.
