Coverage of the 2016 SEMA show

Northwest Deuce Days was held July 24 in downtown Victoria, BC and as usual this once-every-three years hot rod show (1953 and older) proved to be the best car show in Canada...1170 cars in total with 580 1932 Fords. Founder Al Clark says this is the last one he'll preside over and we hope somebody takes the show over as it always attracts not only some of the best cars in Canada but also cars in from the US and even Europe.

The annual Father's Day show n shine in Qualicum Beach, BC is always one of Vancouver Island's best attended car shows.  A little rain in the early going for the 2016 version didn't hinder car count, as you can see from all the great pics in this gallery.

Some pics from a trip to Bakersfield, CA for the March Meet at Auto Club Famosa Raceway. Also pics from a couple of wrecking yards we stopped at on the way down. The first one with all the Chrysler stuff I can't remember what town it was in..second was Turner's Auto Wrecking in Fresno, CA.
