I wonder... do those little luvers (sp?) in that last pic actually help with a stock cooling setup (-4/-6) or are they just for appearance?
bernbomb914

Cant be Mikey, he aint wearing a hawaiian shirt. The flip-flops in the rain is a pretty good impersonation tho.

So, for those of us that didn't get to go, was this get together anything like Dunkels? Better, worse? Any fancy car displays?

So I imagine after a few weeks, that should start to smell pretty strong? Maybe he could take you for a ride in his car.

I was disapointed in the swap meet not near as good as the old Dunkels. not many european cars there. mostly porsche but not like the old meets.maybe the weather had something to do with it.

Never went to Dunkels, so don't really know, but this wasn't much. Maybe it's me, but Ventura didn't rock my socks either. Our little group is great, and I did pick up a few more sponsors and entrants for WCC. We really should do a monthly meet.

I wondered who that was you were talkin to Mikey when we walked up. I could see that you were..."workin" rolleyes.gif ....so I didn't interrupt. Maybe next time you won't be so "busy" and can introduce us biggrin.gif ? Thanks to all the other members who came up and spoke when we were at the car. It was great meeting some of you at the AutoX and dinner and more at the swapmeet. Maybe someday my long-lost son biggrin.gif will grace us Socal folks with his prescence again? Thanks again..............Dad driving.gif

Had a good time at the swapmeet. Not as big as I expected, but I found a nice combo gauge for $5. We sold a lot of stuff, so packing the bus & vanagon wasn't too bad.
It was great to put faces to names at the dinner. Thanks to all that came and chowed down with us. I kinda feel a little sorry for those who sat near us. Z was his normal self biggrin.gif (sorry Mike rolleyes.gif )
I didn't get the chance to check out all the members' cars, someday I should go to one of these things in the teener & just hang out with the gang.
The trip home started out badly, traffic was almost a standstill, so we scooted over to PCH (Hiway 1 to you non CA folk), and went up the coast that way. Got home 7:30ish, and I was sawing logs by 9:30. This getting up at 4:30 in the morning sucks!! Glad I only have to do it a few times a year. Next time I think we'll find a motel in a slightly better part of town.
I saw a few folk taking pics, but aven't seen the results posted yet. I know skline took a few of the crowd at Johnny Rebs, & we talked the waitress into snapping a few. Anyway, thanks to all for livening up the trip for us! clap.gif

Here's a few shots from what I took at the meet. Some nice 356's and "other" makes too. I missed having it at Dunkels old place- just wasn't the same. DH

Fred's six...

Some very nice 911's including a few Carreras...RS's

My buddy Bob in the background - we liked this car...

More 911s...Classic Porsche shot...

I like the competition look with 356’s - I want one...
Kargeek
This was an awsome car...I believe it was a four cam...really nice.
Kargeek
Something about those "A and pre A 356's...they look like bottom feeder sea creatures.
Kargeek
How about a Bug Eyed Sprite? The owner was asking 15K. Something to think about with pricing our 914's
Kargeek
The Micro cars were there...
Kargeek
More Micro's...

After 17 years, I finally drove my car in the rain!
