Happiness

There is something about a car show, everyone is happy. From car show participants to the community that shows up to look at the classic cars. The car show experience is a happy place; it offers an opportunity to gather information and swap stories, brings together car clubs and vendors that work in the car industry. It offers a history lesson about the automotive experience. Thanks to the Road Kings for setting up a beautiful car show filled with perfection.
Thanks to all who came by to check out the Ranchero & the blue q, it was fun. Look for photos of the show this week.

The Ranchero and the Blue Q trailer, then and now.

Taking a look back at the ride.

The Ranchero was once all alone. Then one day there on the grass at a Falcon car show was this little falcon trailer. Following it from car show to car show, never being able to find out who it belonged to I let it go. Then one day while talking to Russ Wall (see garage) he mentioned he had picked up this trailer and was about to break it down into parts. Fate?

Taking the Ranchero and The Blue Q to Johnny Carson Park tomorrow June 11, 2017. Join the Road Kings one of the oldest car clubs in the country for entertainment, vendors and some amazing rides. See our event calendar for more inflammation.

The Ranchero & The Blue Q

Missed taking The Ranchero & The Blue Q to the Beachcruisers Meet.

Postponed car show may have been a good thing with so much happening at the pier. Car shows should be just about the ride.

Chicken on the Q.

After many request: Favorite Rub.

Chicken on the Q 65bbq

A good rub is key to crispy chicken on the Q. This blend is a basic mix that can last up to a month in an airtight container. Add your own spices or mix it up with smokey blends. Great with other meats & fish. Chicken Thighs: Rinse, clean and dry chicken, apply as much rub to taste. I tend to go heavy on the rub. Cook skin side up, flip often till done. About 45 min.
