Picture of the Week: Test Drive

test drive

One of the adventures this past year was Studie’s transmission pooping out while I was at Gene Winfield’s metal working shop (there’s another one coming up soon!) Gene let me keep Studie up there until I had a replacement transmission and I did all the work up at his place in Mojave with a ton of help from Bart and Lori!

This is just one of the many adventures written about in our Gasoline Girls Car Club Year In Review update just posted over on the Gasoline Girls website….check it out!

Adventures in Hot Rodding

Car shows, car club, breakdowns, wrench nights, possible near death experiences, getting things fixed, and as always adventuring in the hot rod world – these things and more are what’ve been goin’ on for the past month as I’ve neglected my writing.

Gasoline Girls Invade Ventura Nationals

It was labor day weekend, and you know what that means…leaving LA for the 100 mile drive to Ventura for the weekend. Although the show’s been going on for 8 years now, this year its name changed from “Primer Nationals” to “Ventura Nationals”…so don’t get confused!

Other then being filled with great cars, good music, a pinup contest…it was extra special because it also marked the first official show that me and my girl’s car club attended together! I’ve been meaning to introduce ya’ll to them, so no time is better then the present – say hello to the Gasoline Girls! We’ve been meeting up and getting together to wrench on one another’s cars for a few months now  - and having a darn good time at it!
