Blox Open House 2012 Coverage…Part 4 of 4…The Conclusion…


IMG_1306

Here we are now with the fourth and concluding portion of our 2012 Blox Open House coverage. Not really much left to say about the event. I had a good time and it was a good chance to experience it after hearing some much about it the last couple of years. Would I go again? Ehh, it’s debatable. Like many events, you really just have to catch me at the right time. It’s cool that Norcal automotive enthusiasts have this event to go to every year and I wish them further success in the future. With that said, let’s get going with the final batch of photos…

Missed the first three parts? Don’t worry, here are the links…

Ruckus buddies…

That was pretty much a wrap on the event. I still had work to do because I had a car to shoot for Super Street magazine so I gathered the rest of the ATS guys and headed back to Fred’s house. We had to meet up with Mallen, owner of the Datsun 510 that I had set-up to shoot…

I can’t realy show you any shots from the shoot so you’ll have to wait for a future issue of Super Street. For now, here’s a random shot I took while I was setting up my equipment… Larger Version (1400×933)

We spent a couple of hours shooting the car but we were all hungry by the time I wrapped everything up…

…so we stopped by Red Robin to grab some dinner before I made the long drive home…

I was starving the whole day so I ordered a pretty hearty bacon cheeseburger…

After dinner, I said goodbye to the homies and started my drive back to Socal. I know the coverage may have spanned the course of 4 days, divided into individual parts, but it all happened in a single day for me. I woke up at 3:30am to go to Norcal and didn’t return home until 4:30am the next morning…what a day, but man, I can’t complain. All in the day and the life of Stickydiljoe. Thanks for looking everyone…
