I had so many pictures I had to split them up. Oh well.
So much cooler than I expected it to be.
While this Porsche had an amusing plate, it also had a Chevy V8 which sounded terrible.
This BMW is no where near being in a parking spot (this was at a nearby business, not in the show). Poor fella couldn’t figure it out.
I completely forgot the the Galant VR-4 existed until I saw this one.

Is it bad that the car I want the most out of all of these is the Tercel?

I didn’t go to any last year and I regret it now, it was a lot better than I expected. I highly recommend it if there is one in your area.

Oh my bleeping expletive! I love these! Tried to buy one five years ago and drove it, but it had a blown HG, lights didn’t work, and the seller was a fucking conartist. I have never seen one since.

I thought you might like that one. First one I’ve ever seen and hopefully not the last. If it comes back to another show I’ll get a full set of pics.

I’ve seen a few out here, one of the local shops uses one as a parts runner. They always surprise the hell out of me when I see them.

This show seemed a little more up my alley. But Tacoma is one fuck of a drive for me...

I was pleasantly surprised to see only 1 Ferrari there and it was mostly ignored. I honestly wouldn’t make that drive for this show. I’m having a hard enough time wanting to drive up to Redmond. They do have a Toyota only show in September though.

Can't decide whether I'd be more excited about the Ute or Carrera GT (which is one of my all time favorites).

You kind of missed out. This year vs last year aren’t comparable. The entire parking lot was used for show, and the entire shopping center walkways (at that block).

I’m starting to see that. I never noticed a lack of them before but I’ve probably only seen two in the last year.

I was more excited by the Carerra as it was only the second one I’ve seen.

That would be Lake’s Autobody in Lakewood. They build them there. It’s glorious.

I used to live in Tacoma, I loved going to Griot’s. Unfortunately I now live in nowhere, IL there really isn’t any fun car stuff going on here.

This was the first time I’ve been to one of these events ...

I failed to examine the Ute closely.
Rookie mistake. You get a pass this time.

That would explain it. That white one is the one I’ve seen all over town. I might need to swing by that place and see it in person.

We are few but we are legion. We outsold Chevelle and beat tem into the ground at racing as well.

The owner of the white one is super cool. He let me drool all over his car and let me in the shop to take pics of the blue one.
How long have you been in Tacoma?

I just moved out here in November and had no idea there was so many automotive things to do. Between Griots(which seems to have some sort of show every week), both Lemay Museums, and the Fairgrounds there seems to be multiple events every week. I grew up in central MN so I am very familiar with automotive wastelands.

I've weirdly seen a bunch of them (multiple just out an about). So I might be more excited by the Ute. Unless I could hear the engine in the Porsche. That is an all time great engine in a road car.

The Lemay Family Collection is about 2 blocks from our house out there. It is a great place for car culture, Griot’s also does a Cruise-in on Fridays (maybe the last Friday of the month, I don’t remember for sure) that is pretty cool if are onto old American Muscle cars. I can’t wait to move back there.

The Torino’s are nothing to be messed with either, they had some SCJs in them as well
RedlineZ bought an SV (And is getting rid of the z)
