  8. I am not gonna make it like I thought. I have been given the chance to work with one of the great metal guys here in phoenix on my car making some panels that I cannot make and he is willing to teach me. So the car is going into his shop today and all next week we will be making major progress on the metal work on the car. I will plan better for next year when I can come over there for more time. Someone please post pics of the show.

    Not much going on yet. I only saw a few cars. Primer would be the optimum word for the cars. Nothing picture worthy.

    I saw that car parked on one of the side streets. There was some nice cars downtown. I saw the Butch Leal 65 Plymouth driving down main street. If that was not real it sure looked like it.

    Any word if the Reliability Run is still on for Sunday? I heard flash flood warnings on the weather band for Ventura County. Just curious.

  19. A few of us at the Motel were talking on Friday about alternate things to do next year because of the drastically falling attendance of the past few years................but, it's FIXED. Saturday showed us the new management had the right recipe. The turnout was the biggest in years. All the people I've known to quit going over the years for different reasons were ALL there. The show supposedly was to end at 5PM yet spectators were still in line to get in as late as 3.30 that I saw. Good job!!!

    Been to all 11 Primer/Ventura Nationals. Seems that Holley has turned a show that was slowly dieing and breathed new life into it. Great turn out. Great cars. The best part was having downtown get involed. So cool to see alot of cars cruising and people hanging out on Main! I could never understand why downtown was dead when there were hundreds of cars in town. It was the Friday night I'd always wanted to see downtown. When the show got real hot on Saturday, I walked across the street n went for a swim at the beach. Good times. Good job Holley!

    Best turn out I've seen in a long time. Holley did a great job along with Aaron and Matt including others. Great job!
