Rudy Martinez Memorial Car Show

Image
We spent most of Sunday at the Memorial Car Show for our friend Rudy Martinez. Rudy was a builder of custom cars, trucks and anything else he found interesting. He owned Auto Upholstery of Orange and excelled in wild custom, traditional hot rod, cafe and high end restoration work. We met him right after moving to Orange and he is responsible for getting us into our 66 Motor Palace location on Rodder's Row in Old Town Orange.

Sleds  Lori and Bondorella got second in Best Custom.  Rudy did the seat on the YM-1 The R50 and spring flowers in the alley.

Happy Birthday to me!
