Globerunner513 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Well if you are from the Northwest, you probably know about the Ski to Sea race that's held annually here in Bellingham, WA. If you don't, it's a team marathon race, starting with a downhill ski leg on Mt. Baker, and ending with sea kayaking on Bellingham Bay. Anyway It's a pretty big event around here and one of the festivities they always have is a classic car show at one of the local parks. I've been to it for a few years now, but this was the first year I was able to actually enter my car! It's the first actual car show i've ever been in, and have to say I had a blast. Got to talk to so many people with so many different kinds of cars. Including a supercharged MX-5, a handmade Alfa-Romeo, and lots of others. Here's some pictures: lots of confusion with the "HybridZ" sticker. lol. Some fun conversation came out of that Handmade based off of a 1937 Alfa Romeo. Guy said that the metal work was done based on pictures. Incredible craftsmanship. Original Datsun 510. So clean! V-8 Conversion MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxjoeyxxeb Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Some very nice cars! I really like the green porsche, the bel air, and the mg v8. My friend and his dad built an mgb 71 with a heavily modded engine and chassis, it handles great. I can't wait for the Pismo Beach show in a month.

Challenger Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I like this one. Ive always wanted to build one. Maybe with my old L28 once I put the turbo motor in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHO-Z Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I lived in Bellingham for 6 years and never remember any car show with the ski to sea. The big car show was in Lynden and there was a small one if Fairhaven. Things alway change after you leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globerunner513 Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 oh yea? crazy. Well i guess it makes sense. The race has gotten really big in the last few years. They have gone over their 'max' number of teams every year for the past 3 or 4 years i think. 420 teams this year. Guess the car show is a newer thing then. I've always remembered it there, but then again that hasn't been too long for me that i've gotten into the festivities. (usually been helping out with the race) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proxlamus© Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 That blue Z is very pretty.. but PLEASE but on some lowering springs or coil overs?! the gap is insane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globerunner513 Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 geez i know it. I thought it was bad before...but this is just insane. Hopefully this summer i can get atleast some used lowering springs on her. I plan on going zg-flares in a little while, so i think i'll wait on the coilvers until then unfortunately.
