The Ford Falcon and a Car Show
The Car Show vs The Car Show Swap Meet
Car shows have a lot of different venues. There’s the classic community street venue, the in the park on the lawn car show, the big name car shows and then there are the swap meet car shows. Car shows can be exclusive from models to year dates but the one thing most car shows have in common are the classics themselves. Some are pure perfection some are daily drivers but most of them align to the theme of what the car show is all about. Swap meet cars shows have a different theme altogether, some are exclusive to year dates but most have a different take on what shows up and this is why we love The Pomona Swap Meet. Take the Ranchero and the Falcon; on any given Sunday when they run the show, we may come across a few Rancheros or Falcons in all states of perfection, waiting for a new home by car or by parts. The Pomona Swap Meet allows for the opportunity to see the life of a car from the good the bad and the trailered. So get out on a Sunday morning and catch a car show, the enjoyment is in the ride.

Fabulous Fords Forever April 17, 2016
The Grand National Roadster Show 2014 is at the Pomona Fairplex. Go on Friday if you want to avoid the crowd but the outside venues are a little weak. Saturdays show was as great as the weather. Line getting in through the NHRA Museum was more than a little slow. A few Rancheros and Falcons were in attendance. The outside rides were more enjoyable than inside, where the lights, bounce off the cars and the crowded background make getting a good shot of a great car almost impossible. The suede palace was not as exciting as past years, the inside was way too crowded to enjoy the possibility of a great photo and the outside cars, to close together. This is a great car show for looking at some amazing rides but for the camera, not so much.
Overall this show is one of the best. Look for photos by this week.
