Apparently the lucky owner of this 1932 cabriolet easily won it at an auction because almost nobody else was interested! On top of that, when it arrived it had everything, including a working top and an original trunk.

Pearl Paint:
My imagery fails to reveal the pearl paint, which looks like ice crystals sparkling on freshly fallen snow.

Cinco de Mayo honors the 1862 victory of Mexico over the invading French, at the Battle of Puebla.
Calakas’ Cinco de Mayo festival at the Waterfront on the Snake River Landing, Idaho Falls, 04MAY2025.
Initially it doesn’t look like many people showed up, but three hours later it was wall-to-wall, packed with people and vehiculars!
Familia: 
Carros:
Azteca:
By the end of the routine several dancers were trying to keep from losing their headdresses.
This is from the closing dance/ceremony:
I got to the event at noon, three hours later it was too crowded for my liking, even the parking situation was getting bad with newcomers blocking in parked cars (plus I forgot to wear a hat) so time for me to vamos.
Extra security guards were called in, and an Idaho Falls police guy paid a visit. Proof the fiesta was a success!

The money raised from the car show goes to maintaining the Bannock County Veterans Memorial Building.
So many cars showed up last year that they had to stage cars in the adjacent Memorial Park, this year.

1946 Chevy AK pick-em-up. The ’46-’47 model years Chevy AK series pickup was close to the same as the ‘41-’45 Chevy AK pickup. Basically Chevrolet just picked up where they left off when the United States was pushed into the Second World War, by Japan.
Congress declared war, and what many people don’t realize is that a declaration of war is the same as Marshal Law, which means the military (called The War Department back then) becomes the new government and the Constitution is suspended! The War Department took over everything, including the automotive industry, and focused all aspect of life in the U.S. towards production for the military. During the war the AK series was built mainly for the military, and some were made for farm use.
The AK series pickup was General Motors attempt to visually, and mechanically, separate their passenger cars from their trucks. It was also sold under the GMC brand (C-series from ’41-’45, E-series from ’46-’47). They even built bus versions, and a squished looking Cab Over Engine (COE) version.
Here’s my video:
The Chevy AK series was considered the second true pickup truck for General Motors (previous ‘trucks’ being considered coupe utilities, like a more modern El Camino).

Climbing K10!
Almost everybody has heard of K2 (a peak associated with Mount Everest), but did you know there is a K10 (Saltoro Kangri, aka Peak 36). The ‘K’ stands for the Karakoram Mountain Range. Did the designers with General Motors know that when they dubbed their Chevy Squarebody the K10?
