Last week was fairly Import heavy and most of this week will be drift heavy so to show a little love to those who read the blog and are a fan of classic cars I swung by the Applewood Plaza cruise in last week and took some photos.
The turnout was not the largest that I’ve seen but it sure wasn’t the smallest either, and I got to chat with Rod, the owner of the Turbonique Rocket Kart, some more about just how crazy the whole Jet powered vehicle thing was.
No real order to the photos today, just going to post them up as they were on my hard drive after editing.
If I recall this was at least 600hp, but I think more in the 800hp rangeFlying Native?Love tubbed carsIt's been awhile since I have seen this AMXLoved the Olive color on this CudaThe wheels were cool too remind me of older cop carsClean and classy cruiserFlat black Mercury truck with character1950 ish Chevy TruckWith a wood lined bed I loved but would never useI've been thinking that my get old and die with project might one day be a Grand NatI loved them even before I knew what powered themNice Austin-HealyA buddy of mine has a rodded Malibu as well, doesn't look quite like this thoughIt was very clean all aroundYou need to look no farther than the site header to know I like Black PanterasMmmm.Awhile ago on twitter I was talking about how I had not seen a Prowler in yearsThis was without a doubt the most modified one I have ever seenDetailed all the way down to the brakesCrowds are typical around the Turbonique kart
For Ollie and Joe
When I am at events I try and take photos of things I know my readers will respond too, whether it be women, funny stickers, random nonsense, or random cars.
More often than not when I post an odd car Ollie or Joe are the first to identify it, so I figured I should take some pictures of this car for them and the rest of you out there who are familiar with off beat cars.
Don’t ever say I don’t pay attention to the comments 😉
With a unique emblem like this I am sure it's easily identifiedKnock offs on all 4 wheelsRear engine, no badges in sight
