Who's in for the Foxen Canyon Cruise...

Today my Dad and I went on a trial Foxen Canyon Cruise in the '46.  We could start and also end in Santa Maria.  It looks like it will be a great cruise with about five good spots for photos.  We could stop in Los Alamos and get a bite to eat towards the end of the cruise.  From Los Alamos we would take 135 back into Santa Maria.  The date is set for Sunday April 29, 2011.  Let me know what you think about the time, it is about a 2 1/2 hour cruise.  It could either be Sunday morning at 10:00 am or we could start Sunday afternoon around 1:00 pm.

1940s Kustoms...



Traditional style Kustoms from the 1930s through the early 60s are what I like.  I would have to say that the Kustoms of the 1940s have always been my favorites.

'36 Ford Unskirted...

Looks good but I would like to see it with skirts.  That's what everyone would say about my 40 Chrysler and they were right.

Time to do a Foxen Canyon Run...

This photo was taken a few years back at one of our Foxen Canyon runs from Santa Maria.  Check out the map below to see the route.  The weather should start warming up soon so we are about ready for the next run.  It will be a Sunday morning so email me if you are interested and I will give you the date and time.

Watson Painted Kustom Mopar...


1957 Plymouth
Larry Watson did some amazing paint schemes utilizing the design of the car to accent his work.  This Plymouth has always been one of my favorites, but I really like Mopars and I like green.

The Friday View...

The weekend view does not look so good.  Very cloudy with rain, no Mad Bomberz BBQ this weekend.  They said thay are going to re-schedule so I will keep you posted.
