You'd think I'd be car showed out after the Labor Day Weekend up north,
and yeah I was.
It would have been a shame to not make it to a local car show nearby,
the Fiesta de Kustom Kulture down in old town.
The day before I had welded up some business card stands for a friend,
which gave a little momentum to go.
A plan was texted up with a couple car friends.
We rallied up late morning to get there,
and totally cheaped out and found sweet parking next to the show.
Hey at $105 for 3 cars it was an easy choice,
actually it was 4 to 1 vote.
I could either get that tranny fluid or get stuck at a show til 6pm!
In a funny chain of events,
instead of checking out the show,
we bee-lined to a $2.99 breakfast special at O'Hungry's!
What the heck this was a free meal now that we were $30 richer...
Brandon even treated himself to a 10 am yard of beer!
The show had some good cars.
This 39 or 40 mercury was my top pick.
Considering all the custom work that was done,
there was not a flaw on it.
This 51 ford has been around a while,
and was another really clean custom.
For a fun drive this 49 or 50 ford would be a kick in the pants.
While shiny cars are fun to look at,
they would be nerve-wracking to own.
This '56 studebaker pickup looked like a fun work truck.
This guy had every modification done on his stingray.
If you look closely there's actually an air-powered hydraulic system.
The spring would bump up the front end.
This was the perfect wife car.
A ford galaxy 4-door with the original 6-cylinder.
Heck I'd drive this thing.
This was a good San Diego event,
but seemed geared toward a tourist crowd.
Hard to compare with the blow-out Ventura Nationals the week before.
Within an hour of walking around,
our temporary Cheapskaters Car Club was drinking beers in the dive bar.
and yeah I was.

I was ready to get to work on the green 40 by noon,
at this time it was still stuck in the side lot,
so parking on the side street was a good idea.
