Just wanted to throw a HUGE THANKS to a few people.... a bunch of little help/favors/happenings made for an AWESOME time had by my Dad, my buddy John, and of course myself.... this was the first time I've ever had a car in the show at Paso... I hope to repeat it every year from here on out.... First off, Flesh Gordon and Kevin of Gordini's Garage in Fremont... they helped me swap out my heater core and springs, patch my floor, and also helped me ****on up a bunch of little things on the Riviera.... (also Troy Irmish for the exhaust help....) Second, my buddys Shane and Jeff at Santa Cruz Sound Garden... they let me use their tools and shop to put my interior back together, and they did an awesome install on my stereo system as well..!! a special thanks to Kustombuilder for sending me a pair of door springs on his dime... just because he's so cool..!! I'm sure I missed a couple others, but I appreciate everything..!!! I had a great time meeting and hanging out with a bunch of people..!! You know who you are..!! a few Hamb people, and a few others as well... too many to start naming names really.... non-stop cruising, hangin' out, and partying...!!! what could possibly be better..?? (10 degrees cooler that's what..!! hahaha..!!) and thanks to Donnie(lownslow) and his lovely wife Jennifer for the pics of my Dad and I cruising on Friday night... you guys RULE..!!!
If I had known that car belonged to a Hamb'er I would have said hi. That Riv is BAAAADDDDDAAAA***SSSSS! Some day I'm gonna get me one.
Nice Rivi...add some bellflowers on that beast too and it would look even better. Glad to hear your sucess...to bad I couldnt make it...maybe next year.
That Rivi does Rules!!!...I cant wait till my man hits me off w/the footage from this year..I hope to make it next year.. Kool post holmes on the real...alot of kats seem to forget lil' things like that.. Dirty
Thanks for the compliments guys..!! If/when I do decide to bag it, I plan on maybe making custom Bellflowers.... gonna be getting the shorty header kit and mandrel-bent exhaust from TA Performance over the summer sometime... and if I do run the Bellflowers, I'm going to have a pair of 90 degree mandrel bends made the same size as the exhaust, and have them chromed and then added.... I just really don't want it pinched off where it ties in to the exhaust.... and I don't want to grind/s****e them into nothing... hence the bags first... I actually used to run Bellflowers before the new(hahaha..!!) paint... back when the car was ****ty blood red.... Dirty.... I like to give my true friends props when deserved... and you are correct....which really is too bad sometimes...
no thanks needed here bro......you are a stand up guy . and that does not go unnoticed in our house.....glad you like the pics.......see ya at fathers day??????????? again congrats on a beautiful car......
Hey man, it was good to see you. The Rivi is so damn SWEEEEET!!! You shoulda jumped in the pool with us. See ya!
I'm just glad that ***monkey who crashed into that hotrod , didn't push it into my car , and then into your car AND THEN have to end up in the ICU . . . didn't get to meet you this time , but I was talking to Cole and John was standing right there . . . don't know if you were too ? next time your car looked nice anyhow !
Hey, it was nice seeing you cruise as well.....to bad my Riv didn't like to idle for 20+ minutes. so I couldn't cruise much, but everyone dug the green lights (course the cooling deal is the least of my problems now !!) FYI, the heat was mild for PASO........ seeya -SAM

sooo, I'm shooting it while you're down here for LAR? It was good to see you rollin that pile, Jack. That was the funnestest Paso EVER. There seemed to be a low scenester ratio this year. No fights at the bowling alley? Even Uncle Germ managed to stay out of jail.
Thanks again guys... Honestly, I had the best time ever..!!! =mike=... hahaha..!! Yeah, ICU definitely would have been where he was headed... and I most likely was standing near John, but I was also the dude who 'helped' you back out your spot when you were getting ready to roll outta A&W.... next time for sure..!! RF... a mullet..?? that rules..!! I'm just lazy and apathetic... no hairs cut in 9 months = questionable style I know... hahaha..!! hell, I barely recognized you with your George Michael beard..!! Rick... I'd REALLY like to ****on up a couple more things with the interior first... then it's ON..!!! I'll drive anywhere you want me to... it was definitely a mellow scene this year, and I'm glad..!!! Sam... Good luck with the rebuild... and the green lights kicked ***..!! nic... you should see what YOU guys missed in the hottub in our room..!!! Evel... Mad Fab is ruling..!!! can't wait for Vol. 2.... It was great meeting everybody..!! see you all again real soon..!! Later Snacks....
The paint on that car is incredible.. the green flake roof and yellow (pearl?) bottom work so good together..
Snacky- It was good seeing you there. Sorry I was so out of it when I saw you at the A&W- We'll have to hang out a bit more next year! Viva la Riva! jay jay
