Ode To A Machine

My friends the Dewire's bought one of these Margaritaville drink blenders. It made the best Margaritas, we just had to have one. It crushes the right amount of ice , blends it and shuts off by itself. If only we had this when we did our Luau's, Eric"The Bartender" would have loved it.

4th of July Car Show

I took the '28 Ford to Fillmore for the Sespe Creek Car Show. Carole thought it was too hot to go (she was right). It was nice but nothing to rave about. Our friends Dennis and Kim had gone to Minnisota for "Back To The Fifties" Car Show and when they got back they took their COE home. I sure liked that truck.

1950 Chevrolet COE

New Sign For The Wall

Just aquired this LAPD No Parking sign from a friend who knows I collect LAPD signs. LAPD has not issued traffic signs in over 50 years so they are hard to find. I must say I appreciate him parting with this sign and it now has a nice comfortable home with other signs. Visit my friends web site for Cal. Traffic Sign history. www.caltrafficsigns.com

New Tail Lights For The Graham

I had an idea about using Chev. HHR tail lights on the Graham. I contacted my friend Eric, who works at a Chev. dealer, to measure one for me so I could see if it works or not. Eric went one better and sent me one to try. It worked out pretty good so I got another at a super great price from him, added after-market crome rings and it looks much better now. Thanks Eric.
