1946 Chevy AK!

This 1946 Chevy AK made an appearance at the Tadd Jenkins auto-show-burnout event in Blackfoot, Idaho, 07JUN2025.

This same truck made an appearance in the now demolished Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, at the end of August 2024.

Here’s a quick video:

June is when the bugs come out: VW June Bug!

On ‘Holiday’ with Oldsmobile, in 1955 style!

Oldsmobile offered a Holiday package on its sedans from 1949 to 1970.  The 1950s Oldsmobiles featured a globe ornament on the nose of the hood, just below the ‘rocket’.

This 1955 Olds Holiday must’ve turned the world upside down, going by its hood ornament.

This 1955 four door Holiday was seen at the Tadd Jenkins auto-show-burnout display in Blackfoot, Idaho, 07JUN2025.

Pocatello, 03JUN2025: A mini-show & go!

¡Carros! ¡Familia! ¡Azteca!: Calakas’ Cinco de Mayo, Idaho Falls!

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!

Watch much more in an hour long ‘long-form’ video and a couple of ‘shorts’ on my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpdGBQcv3CSTUTQ63VTFiSw

Early Halloween, Trunk or Treat at the Mall!

While they were busy trying to setup the parking lot for the inaugural Southeast Idaho drift car event, during the evening of 04OCT2024, a handful of cars were sneaking into the Pine Ridge Mall (in Chubbuck, Idaho):

The event was organized by the Pocatello Car Club, with the help of a hell-of-a-lot of sponsors.

So many cars showed up last year that they had to stage cars in the adjacent Memorial Park, this year.
