17 years of free cars & food?

17th Annual Gate City Real Estate’s Client Appreciation car show and food feed at O.K. Ward Park in Pocatello, Idaho.

I wasn’t expecting so many cars at a free event, but reportedly it is the biggest such event in Bannock County.  Gate City Real Estate also calls this event their ‘company picnic’, yet everybody is invited!

Here is a few of the many cars (pardon my Summer Time Allergies):

Some more cars:

Another sampling:

Free food line.

Even after two hours of checking out the cars, they still had plenty of BBQ:

The sky got smoky from all the wildfires, but it actually made for a cool sunset.

Bad Gas at the free car show and B-B-Q feed fest?

One of the biggest free car shows and food feed in Bannock County, the 17th Annual Client Appreciation Car Show & BBQ!

It took place in O.K. Ward Park, on the northwest side of Pocatello, on 08AUG2024.

Here’s my video:

The current owner gave me the back story to this 1966 Chevy-2 Super Sport.  The original owner used it for drag racing until finally permanently parking the car in his garage.  After more than a decade, another guy came along looking for a project to use his Chevy LS-1 motor and 6-speed manual transmission on.

The current owner revealed to me that the old-skool fuel injector set-up is fake, it is actually a glorified air cleaner housing for the carburetor hidden underneath!

Even though it has a modern 6-speed manual transmission, it sports an old Hurst style 4-speed shifter.

The current owner drives his fake-news gasser around town whenever he can, yes it is street legal.

Elegant Living car show & free food!!!

The first day of June 2024, Elegant Residential Living held its Second Annual car show and free barbeque!

The show, shine and then stuff your belly happened in Chubbuck, Idaho, and some guy named Crazy Carl (and mysteriously/unknowingly ‘volunteered’ helpers) cooked up a storm of chicken and ribs! Never mind the cigarette, it just adds more flavor:
