On the 15th-16th of March 2024, Idaho State University (ISU)-College of Technology Automotive Program held its ‘Chrome in the Dome’ car show.
There were several cool old cars in the parking lot outside the (now formerly) Holt Arena, on the Idaho State University campus. Here is a sampling;

Holt Arena 2024: 
CHROME IN THE ICCU DOME, part-1
On the 15th-16th of March 2024, Idaho State University (ISU)-College of Technology Automotive Program held its ‘Chrome in the Dome’ car show, probably for the last time in ‘Holt Arena’. That’s because in January 2024, the first in the U.S. fully enclosed colligate sports arena got a name change, for the third time since 1970.
The new name is ICCU (Idaho Central Credit Union) Dome, due to the arena’s recent refreshment being funded largely by the financial institution. In 1970, it was called ASISU (Associated Students of Idaho State University) Minidome to honor the fact that students (whether they knew it or not) had funded the construction through increased student fees. In 1988, the name was changed to Holt Arena to honor the athletic director who pushed for the creation of the Minidome.
My children all had their high school graduations in Holt Arena, and I attended my own graduation from ISU in Holt Arena. It’s also used for many things other than sports and graduations, such as the Pocatello Spring Fair, farm shows and car shows, let’s go!
Custom trophies for custom cars! Trophies were made by Idaho State University-College of Technology Automotive Program students.

Holt Arena 2024: 
The Duke is really part British Austin Ruby-7 and Japanese Suzuki Samurai?!
Making an appearance at the March 2024, Idaho State University ‘Chrome in the Dome’ car show, none other than The Duke! Of course not the dead guy, but a car honoring the dead guy (John Wayne, aka Marion Robert Morrison).
Believe it or else, it took a crazy Idahoan three years to kit-bash one unique, one-off, car out of British and Japanese parts, to honor the United States’ icon of Western movies!
16MAR2024, ISU Holt Arena in Pocatello, Idaho.
The body is a 1937 Austin Ruby-7, made in the United Kingdom, and the chassis-drivetrain is from a Suzuki Samurai made in Japan! The Ruby-7 was missing most of its floor-pan, and some adjustments needed to be made to get the British body to sit down on the Nipponese frame.
This kit-bashed custom has revolving Revolver exhaust pipes (my video):
It was hard getting walk-around video due to all the Pokies crowding ’round. People loved the plethora of Western gunslinger trinkets plastered all over the hybrid vehicle; the more you looked the more you found:
The builder/owner already has a very tempting offer from a prospective buyer, and another prospector who might join in for a bidding war. This has the builder chomping-at-the-bit to whip-up his next horsepower project (a ’56 Chevy).

“By their deeds you will know them…..”-Matthew 7:16, New Messianic Version Bible
Adir=Mighty
U.S. Secretary of Defense Ash Carter, and Israeli Minister of Defense Avigdor Lieberman, stand by one of Israel’s first two F-35 ‘Adir’ jets during a ceremony on Nevatim Air Base, Israel. U.S. Air Force photo by Technical Sergeant Brigitte N. Brantley, 12DEC2016.
On 12DEC2016, two F-35 Lightning-2s arrived on Nevatim Air Base, Israel, where they were rechristened F-35I (I for Israel) Adir. U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama the Second‘s Secretary of Defense, Ashton Baldwin Carter, praised Israel and revealed long-term plans to “dominate the skies” over The Middle East. I edited this video from videos recorded by U.S. Navy Petty Officer Second Class Glenn Slaughter, the U.S. Department of Defense, and U.S. Embassy photographer Ziv Sokolov:
Ever since the delivery of the first two F-35-Is to Israel, the United States Air Force (USAF) has routinely attended wargames in Israel using its F-35 Lightining-2, the most recent being in January 2023. The large-scale bilateral multi-domain wargame is called Juniper Oak, and is meant to enhance ‘interoperability’ between U.S. and Israeli armed forces.

Juniper Oak is just one of several U.S.-Israeli wargames. However, Israel also routinely sends their F-35-Is to the U.S., for wargames over North America, such as Red Flag.

Israeli F-35-Is also take part in NATO wargames, such as a wargame called Falcon Strike which involves Israel, Italy, United Kingdom and United States.

“‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!’ She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal. For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”-from Revelation 18, King James Bible

The UGM (Underwater-launched Guided Missile) Polaris Sales Agreement allows the two countries to share nuclear technologies, in the name of a joint defense against a common enemy. During the non-declared Cold War the enemy was the Soviet Union, today it is Communist China, North Korea and Russia.

In 1982, the Polaris Sales Agreement was amended to include the UGM Titan-2 Submarine Launched Ballistic Missile (SLBM).
A UGM-27 Polaris SLBM is launched from the British nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine HMS Revenge (S 27).
In 2006, the Polaris Sales Agreement was amended again; the U.S. and U.K. will jointly develop a new SLBM.

INAUGURAL INDOOR WINTER/NEW YEAR CAR SHOW!
Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).
Based upon a backwards Soviet T-54/55 battle tank chassis/lower hull, the BAT-M (бульдозер артиллерийском тягаче модернизированный, Bulldozer Artillery Tractor-Modernized) is basically a bulldozer, but western/NATO military analysts prefer to call it by the more mil-speak sounding title of ‘route clearing vehicle’. The lower hull of the T-54/55 was rotated so that the power pack (motor/transmission) and drive sprockets were at the front of the vehicle. It uses a manually operated transmission.
The BAT-M crew-cab is a widen/modified ZIS truck cabin. Supposedly 35-thousand were built by 1979, when production stopped. Today, most are rusting away, some are for sale.
Beyond: Post Cold War, Balkan Wars, War on Terror, Battle for Ukraine, 1992 to present.
Former Warsaw Pact-Poland becomes NATO-Poland in March 1999, despite a February 1990 promise by the United States Secretary of State, James Baker, that NATO would not expand “one inch eastward”.
