Paso Robles 2004
The Car Show, Camping, and Road Trip Picture Collection
Before we left.....
Josie and Nick in the '57 Chevy towing a vintage trailer and Jeremy and Shannon in the '51 Chevy truck with a load of cool bikes (except the Vespa). A chaotic mess on me and Greg's part, the tranny rear seal was leaking so I went to get another one, it didn't fit, and Greg kinda broke down. I went, and Kevin at Monument helped us out, as we had the dimensions we needed, he looked it up, and they had one in stock. We were ready, and on the road in a totally untested '50 Dodge!
Stopping for Gas
Arriving at the campground at 2:00 in the morning.....
Somewhat tired, but our old cars made it! We woke some grizzly-bear of a dude up at the General Store. We were going to go back and steal his fish sign, but we were tired. The KOA campground kinda sucked, but we just wanted sleep at this point. The stars were awesome out there.
Saturday at the Show!
Mmmmm.... breakfast, I think....
Saturday at the KOA
The 'Nocho P' watermelon cap.... Nothing like camping, and stuff.
Last day in Paso.....
Our shit breaking down....
Josie's '57 had a minor cooling problem towing the rig in the hot sun. A few hours more at the show and we were good to go....
Well sorta.... the Dodge was resting on its bumpstops, and those finally crumbled away, leaving the driveshaft whackin' the bottom of the car. One 2x4 placed "strategically" saved the day. Yeah, it's held on with duct tape....
