By mid-afternoon, Tim and I felt we had pretty much cycled the whole show enough. We did a few more laps around the show just to scope things out…maybe find some hidden treasures, and visited some local owners and also checked out the model booth later on.
Various acts were performing on stage throughout the day…nothing too explosive though…
Spotted this U2 360 shirt from about a mile away…just my nature I suppose…
Cool little widebody CRZ. Good to see some new ones out there…
Loved this older off-white 911 Carrera. Porsche’s are really hard to ID by year because…well…they all look the same. But I want to say its a 78+ just because of the tail light design. The kit and aero makes it even harder to tell…
I thought this was cool, mainly because you’d only see it on a Porsche or a similar car with wide enough fenders.
…the interior…
…and the motor. Love the flat ITB collar…
Here’s another angle…
This NA1 NSX was very well done.
First thing that came to mind when I saw this:
Seacrest County Speed Enforcement…
…Something I just don’t really understand yet. The car is nice but I thought the little mannequin dudes were quite creepy.
I liked this simple black CRX.
Then we went over and checked out some Ruckus’ on display.
Love both of these hatchbacks, which I repeatedly see at socal events. Both of them are so timeless and I think do a great job of representing an era.
My ideal engine bay. Looks like it’s out of a Spoon catalog. Even has the Del Sol air cleaner tube for the B16A, rather than trying to shove the 58mm SOHC one on the bigger B-series throttle. It does need an LS/TypeR throttle though to fix the loop-back cable…
Paid a visit to local SD Team Showpow, who had several cars on display…
Eddy’s 4-door…
Peng’s Accord..
Eddy locked inside the Showpow display…or outside it, rather…
Jason’s Accord coupe…
Not a Showpow car but it was parked directly behind them…interesting theme, but a lot going on elsewhere in the bay. One of the best Milano Red paint jobs I’ve ever seen too…
One of my favorite cars at EAF was this battleship gray EG6. So many subtle things that made this car great. The low-profile aero on the hood and fenders, the molded-in ducts through the fog-light holes, a 5-lug conversion with fitted Spoon brake calipers, and I just loved the dump-tube exhaust and bare interior.
I’ll wrap up part three there. I will post the final part this weekend. Stay tuned and thanks for reading! Meanwhile…here are a couple shots we grabbed of Raichelle Viado at the NOS model booth…
Thanks!
