No Jeep, Pomona Swap Meet

By 66 Underachiever
Jeep not meant to be...
First the bad news. The Jeep isn't for sale. Now the good news. The Jeep isn't abandoned. The owner just rescued it and is fixing it up for his grandsons. I'll be keeping an eye out and hope to see it around town.



Pomona Swap Meet
Southern California has a lot to offer--the weather's great, and there are countless rides, shows, races, 
and a hundred other things every weekend. But when it's all said and done, if I leave this place the things I'll miss the most are the Pomona and Long Beach Swap Meets.

If you ever want to surprise me I love 66-67 Dodge Chargers.

Early '60s Saab 96

I know these aren't supposed to be cool anymore but I like 'em!

I had to drag her away kicking and screaming.

Tricked out, wore out CB550

Nice stock Beetle about to be lowered. 

CT70 $4000

This one too! They were about perfect.

Morgan and Phillips SEMA car. Check out their cool clothes!
Heritage
I played around with the Heritage but didn't get much done. Spent most of the time extracting cross threaded screws. Made some adjustments to the carburetor, replaced the grips, and sorted out a few minor things. Overall it's in great condition and runs real nice. 
The G/S looks like it's laying on it's side!

Nothing to see here

Mike Hodis of Rising Sun Jeans hosted a post Inspiration party Sunday with all the trimmings. Rising Sun hand crafts denim and work wear on antique sewing machines using traditional techniques and the highest quality materials. Mike's passion for quality is only rivaled by his knowledge and skill. Took the R100S out Santiago Canyon to try out the new throttle cables...they work, and had lunch at the Silverado Cafe . This place is pretty good. It reminds me of the cafes found in small towns far away from California. The waitress was real nice, the food was good, and lunch was less than $10 including coffee! I'm going to try breakfast next time. Cafe Racer Lunch Counter at Silverado Cafe I was honored to be allowed to drink from Rosemary's pretty cat mug. We got more Schott 141 Cafes and 689H Retro Horsehides. We're still waiting for  Women's One Stars. The NHRA Winter Nationals were this week and I hung around the

Pantera motor spotted at Belmont Shores car show today. Thanks for humoring me. This is a test for the mobile blog thing. It finally worked! Since you're here...this car really had a gold plated drivetrain and lots of trim including custom made bumpers. Believe it or not it looked really cool in a strange way. Here you go Barbary Buzzard. Lori got better shot of engine compartment. and the bumpers.

Lucky Triumph Last week's Triumph troubles are turning out to be a pretty good thing...if you're the Triumph. Lori's been wanting to do something with it for awhile and said, "Since it needs a battery I might as well take the gas tank off and see about paint." So the battery's here, the tank and rear fender are off, she's shopping for a tail light assembly, and pondering some paint options. Here's a few pictures of her tearing it apart after we siphoned the gas out of it. Here's a few more with the color turned on. Agriculture Report The seedlings were transplanted into their new pots Saturday. Lori knocked the bottoms out of the eggshells and planted them with Marigolds to help repel insects. They're taking well to their new homes and look like they've grown in the last twenty four hours! More at  www.townhomesteader.com   Crazy Old Jeep This Jeep caught my eye while fueling up last wee
