I'll be pullin out of Corona friday at about 4:30 AM. Gonna try to meet up with Chris and the rest of the gang in Barstow... Thanks man, If something goes awry, I will call you. The dealer gave me a loaner car, but I don't know if they want me putting 900 miles on it in a couple of days :) Quote Link to comment
Nostalgic Datsun Posted October 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hot off the Press! http://williamsnews.com/main.asp?SectionID=74&SubSectionID=114&ArticleID=12815 Quote Link to comment
AZ_L320 Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Wow, great publicity for this event. I think this show will keep growing and a has lot to offer. Good job, organizers! Dale - AZ Quote Link to comment
Duncan Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 The dealer just called and said my truck should be done this afternoon, or early tomorrow morning. If that is true, I will be there with the Sunny. Makes me a little nervous making a 400+ mile trek on a newly repaired transmission towing a car, but I have done sillier things before... See everyone soon, one way or another! Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Outstanding, I say. Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Just finished loading my car on the trailer, Got a full tank of gas and ready to roll out. I just hope I can catch up with Chris and his gang in Barstow. I will more than likely not sleep a wink tonight. I'm like a little kid going to Disneyland. Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Car is loaded and ready to go. I probably won't sleep tonight either. This week was very FUBAR at work, talk about paid vacation....Ipaid for it allright. Now its time for open road, seeing friends from last year and meeting new ones. See ya'll tomorrow. Williams, here we come. Quote Link to comment
Duncan Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Just finished loading my car on the trailer, Got a full tank of gas and ready to roll out. Mine is trailered up, too. I'm headed out about 5:00-5:30am-ish or so. One hand on the wheel, and one hand throwing down a big mug of coffee! Quote Link to comment

AZ_L320 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Got home from this show late yesterday. Had a great time. Saw old friends and made some new ones. Cars were great this year. Show was well done by SOLCALROC! Williams is a fun town, I'm glad they hosted it. They had a lot of raffle prizes that were given away. Looking forward to next year already. Here are a few of the pictures I took. I'm looking forward to seeing the more "professional" looking photos that I'm sure several others took. ;) Dale - AZ Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Those were some pretty good pics, I need to quit being lazy and see what I have worth posting....maybe tomorrow. Ratsuners did pretty good this year in the awards....lets see if I remember and or can get it right. Datrod got one(awesome lookin Z), AZ_L320 got one(for his 1200 coupe), KC30 got one for his Nissan Laurel, Zachdog got one for his Roadster (got to follow him to the show) the blue exterminator truck....can't remember the guys name (real or on here) and I can't remember 320 or 520 (sorry man, my memory just ain't what it used to be), I'm gonna have to come back and edit this. Hell, I even picked up one for my coupe. Thats six for Ratsun.......I would say we represented. Duncan was there with his RHD Sunny (looks good with those white walls), but was not entered as he had best of show last year. The show was great, the weather was awesome, the town was great. Thanks to SOCALROC and all they did to put on a great show and a great time. Just can't wait til next year. Edit: The truck was Datsun/bmw's and it is anL320 Quote Link to comment
AZ_L320 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Thanks Kelmo. I did manage to get yours and my coupe in the same shot! (The last pic) Dale -AZ Quote Link to comment
the510keeper Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 very cool, looks like a new Shasta Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I had a great time, Got to meet some new folks and hang out with some old friends. Got pretty hammered on Friday night... They even have a brew house right there in town. :thumbup: The Mayor was cool as hell. Great town for a show. Can't wait for next year. I think I'll take a whole week and do the train ride to the Grand Canyon. And take in a little more of Arizona. Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 The first thing I took a picture of when I got into town....I always wondered what my name would look like in lights. Well this is pretty close. Quote Link to comment
zachdog Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Kelmo forgot to mention that his car was selected as the "Diamond in the Rough". His rebuilt engine performed really well and his engine compartment was immaculate. He told the crowd that he would paint one door for next year's show. Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Datrod, your last name is 1881? thats odd :thumbup: Zachdog, heck I might even paint both of em Quote Link to comment
