Solvang 2012 Photos

Post by scogre »

UPDATE: I am adding a bunch of photos to this post so that you don't have to go to my FLICKR stream, but the photo stream is still there will all 2,800+ photos.

Hey everyone, I'm just getting ready to head out to Big Boppers for the Friday Night gathering, but I thought that everyone that can't make it would like to see what has been happening so far today.

So head over to http://www.FLICKR.com/photos/datsunroadsterfun/ , that's my FLICKR site that my computer is uploading to right now. It says it still has another 25 minutes, but if you head over, I will try to update it later tonight also with pics from tonights gathering. I'll post a ton of other pictures tomorrow also.

Sorry, I'm in a hurry, so I don't have time to upload any of them in here.

Solvang Rocks!


Here is the meet-up of SOCALROC in Woodland Hills

The food was pretty good. I had the tri-tip sandwich and I was pretty hungry.

A little later, Eric's Best of Show car showed up. So pretty.

Heads up. Just posted all the pics from the Friday Night gathering. Still uploading, but I wanted everyone to know.

This is a great weekend!

Hey, if there is anything in particular that you want to see a picture of, just let me know and I will try to get it tomorrow.

I love Roadsters and I love pictures. So, I think this weekend will help me get my money's worth out of FLICKR. :)

I have a TON of video too, but that takes way longer to process on a laptop. Hopefully I can start uploading that next week.

No problem. New batches will be going up all night. I took a lot of photos. I think around 2000 today. So should be something for everyone in there. :)

Sorry, no video till I get home. I filled up my harddrive.

Here's one of my favorite shots of the day. All the cars lined up. I was able to get my camera really high and I think the picture turned out great! (I just wish you could see if full size, it's a great photo. But the full one is on my FLICKR and you should be able to download)

Did any Fairlady 1500s make it to the show this year?

BTW: The pictures are INSANE! I feel like I was right there on First street (sans exhaust fumes).
