Man, time is just FLYING by right now. I can’t believe it’s already mid-November. While I’m getting the rest of these photos up from Wekfest LA, we are just a few days removed from the return of the massive San Jose Wekfest event. It’s gonna be a good one this weekend. There are some cars that are going this year that you’ll definitely want to see if you haven’t been to a car show in awhile. San Jose is the big one, the Super Bowl if you will, of the Wekfest series so you should definitely attend if you were on the fence about being out and about this weekend. Today we take a look at the concluding portion of coverage I have of the Los Angeles stop. These are some stills that I took the morning of the event right before the show opened. I really wanted to shoot more but there is just so much going on and I’m running around all over the place before the show even opens its doors to the public…
I would have had these up on the site sooner, but again, it’s been busy. Like, super busy. But also in a very good way. I was invited to check out the unveiling of the Integra Prototype last week so I didn’t have time to sit down and host these photos because I also wanted to get content for the Integra out to the public as soon as I could. There was so much media present there that I was worried I’d be the last one to have anything up online about it, even though the response has been a generally negative one from the viewpoint of automotive enthusiasts worldwide. Nonetheless, stuff like that needs to go up fast or it just gets buried with everything else…
There’s a new Vlog coming on Tuesday so content will continue to go up throughout the week. There isn’t much else I need to say about this show. It was a good one, we are so happy to be back and able to have big events again, and it’s time to close out the year on a high note with the San Jose show, followed by the one in Austin, Texas in December. Enjoy…

Wekfest Los Angeles 2021 marked the first time a JZX-chassis ever winning “Car of the Festival” (Best of Show) honors at any Wekfest event. The custom British Racing Green-painted Chaser belongs to Adam Mao from San Jose and has been in the works over the last couple of years. It first made an appearance at the San Jose event where it didn’t even have doors installed so he could showcase all the custom fabrication work within. The build, now fully completed, wears a Car Modify Wonder Shadow complete kit, Ganador mirrors, Project Mu brake kit and Work Wheels…

Eventually I had to put the camera away though to actually work the show and do all the judging. I did snap this shot of this GT3-kitted Ferrari 458 as the roll-out happened at the end of the day however…
The following day, we were supposed to bring the FEEL’S Civic back to Art of Attack but it started raining pretty heavily so we decided it was just better to trailer the car back when it was dry…
The rain actually helped clean the outside of the car a bit being that it hadn’t been washed in years, so I took some final photos of it before it was put back into storage…
I’m glad everyone was able to see the car out in public again. It seemed as if a majority of the people had a good understanding of why it was at Wekfest and why it looked the way it did. I thought there would be more people complaining about it but the response was generally very positive. I guess I made the right decision by setting the whole thing up, haha. That’s all for this one. I’ll see you guys in San Jose this weekend if you’re attending the Wekfest show there. Thanks for looking!!…
