The Jalopy Journal

**Ryan** · 01-26-2009, 01:53 AM

To be honest, this whole thing started awkwardly. After the GNRS post last year, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do. I knew that my idea might ruffle some feathers, but at the end of the day I was still promoting the GNRS and that had to...

Thanks for the coverage, the show looks incredible. I think I'll try and swing a trip out there to see our pal RB Roadster when he moves out Cali. It just might have to coincide with the GNRS.

**warpigg** · 01-26-2009, 03:09 AM

nice work! loved reading/voting over the weekend.

that lowboy is awesome... and, from the looks of it, driven.

g-lover51 · 01-26-2009, 03:20 AM

The coverage was outstanding Ryan, thank you so much for that and thanks goes out to every one else who made the show what it was. It was one of the best car shows I have been to in many years.

stude_trucks · 01-26-2009, 03:28 AM

Glad you seemed to make it there and back and have a pretty good time. Even though I only went down for Sat., I know I enjoyed it. I am sure the next 10 years for the 70th will be here in no time and you can look forward to that.

jick · 01-26-2009, 03:40 AM

i just wanna take this opportunity to thank Ryan, everyone else who has assisted him and all the people who have posted pictures up on here of the show....it really is inspirational stuff.
i'm going to be there next year for sure.
thanks again everyone.....jick.

Hey Chief, thanks for making this great event much more interesting for us folks who didn't make the trip. Your trip sounds like a super adventure and a priviledge to hang with such luminaries and cool folks all around. The J.J. award was very tastefully done, it made me, and I am sure all of us very proud. Going above and beyond to make it exciting and interesting for us does not go unrecognised. Special kudos for Dr. Dan and John Joyo for hanging with you to enhance the experience. Humbled~Sololobo~

publicenemy1925 · 01-26-2009, 07:15 AM

Good choice!

**4t64rd** · 01-26-2009, 08:02 AM

Thanks for biting the bullet and doing an indoor show, now we just have to get you to Detroit... in February.

**JohnJoyo** · 01-26-2009, 08:12 AM

Great show this year and good to see everyone. If only we could have stayed another week.....31st, DJ Quik at the Key Club. If you're there, pour a little out for me.

SanDiegoJoe · 01-26-2009, 08:25 AM

Excellent choice. Tom's roadster is traditional and elegant.

Did anyone get pictures of the award presentation?
