New Artist: The Zug Monster Sign Company

The Lone Falcons Club: Members: 2

Pomona Swap Meet: You can find some really cool vendors at the Pomona Swap Meet.
The Zug Monsters got our attention at the last show, so I gave them some artwork and they created this plaque for The Ranchero and the Blue Q. I dropped by their shop to pick up the art work and watched as they completed the final work on my new car club signage. (See The Artist.) You can find them at The Pomona Swap Meet Row 23 Space 37. They have a great website. Get all information on the artist and their shop here. The Artist.
Next Pomona show December 6, 2015. Sending out for powder coat. Color: Black Chrome. Will update when I get it back.

Adding something new. Snap Shot. Photo pics of car parts and other great things linked to the car show. There are so many great parts of a classic that never makes into the gallery. Snap Shots will give a home to a category that is just about photos collected that define the ride.

George Barris 1925-2015

George Barris was a self-made man.

This custom car legend created some of the most famous television rides and held an amazing car show every year introducing the public to his passion. Not knowing Mr. Barris, I purchased this vintage lunch box and drove over to his North Hollywood studio, he was super nice, stop what he was doing, signed my lunch box and we had a great conversation. Thanks Mr. Barris for the rides.
