This past weekend, I participated in a local show, a charitable event for a good friend who lost his beautiful baby daughter last year...

http://www.jennabearsfoundation.org/



The turnout was amazing and we had a great time. Perfect weather, cool people, and a great assortment of all kinds of cars.

I think I accounted for 50% of the Nissan representation at the show...

Anyhow, without further ado, some pics!



"Peanut" (my NL320) got more attention than the 'vert and the G put together!!!

Why I gotta be hatin'?





Christian's GORGEOUS '71 S30... I'm jealous.

My niece and her Jr Dragster - 80-hp out of a 3" piston in a 5-hp B&S engine!!! I'm SO proud!!!



Saraya wants to run 8's!!!

We got a little sunburned!



Guys, if the mood strikes you, please consider supporting The JennaBears Foundation - info is available on the website. Chris and Nicole Eades are now officially members of the NICOclub family, so show them some love.

50s Oldsmobiles and Buicks give me wood.

I didn't realize your vert was flared, it looks amazing. I'm not usually big on S13 verts, but vert or no, that's one of like the top 5 nicest looking S13's I've ever seen in the US.

Who's the chIx0r in the Corvette?

Looks like about a 55 Holiday 88 Olds. They referred to them as hardtop convertibles.

Awesome Greg! Looks like it was one helluva show. I'm very sorry for their loss, but it sounds like a great foundation. You're the perfect guy to support them in their efforts.

'56. Gorgeous car, VERY period-correct.

"Hardtop convertibles"? Not to my recollection. Just hardtop (lacking a B-pillar). Retractibles would be "hardtop convertibles".

The guy that owns that was cool as hell - He built 90% of that car himself, and has more miles on the track than a lot of people have on the road.

ZOMG! No 56K warning? My computer is having seizures and now has down syndrome. J/k.

In other news, very cool cars there. I wish there was stuff like that close to me!

Stock motor - all homebrewed mods.

Also, he's rebuilt almost the whole car from fiberglass...
