Tucson "TSRA" Show & Swap Last Saturday

The Tucson Street Rod Association had their annual event at The Wildcat House, and I had to break away from work long enough to go.

Tough day! This show in the morning, and this afternoon and evening is "Jets & Funny Cars" at the strip.....and another outdoor car show this evening!

What to do?, What to do? :-( I think I'll do the other show tonight.

P.S. I want you to notice, in the last picture, there are three sets of American 12-spoke wheels in this picture!.....1 set on the truck, and 2 sets on the tables.

Tucson isn't a bad place. Beatiful scenery and killer sunsets, no sunamis, no volcanoes, no earthquakes, floods are rare (they call them 100 year floods), no hurricanes, tornadoes never seem to get to the ground (I grew up in the Midwest), no blizzards, if it snows, it usually melts instantly, hail seems to be limited to about 1/2 inch, no grass to mow (unless you plant it), the mosquitoes never get as big as small birds, and most importantly.......no heavy rust on cars!

On the flip side, you have to spend more on sunglasses and lotion, some of our "rivers" usually have no water in them, and we have an invasion of older drivers when the weather gets cold back east! We call them "snowbirds". All in all, a good trade for the negative stuff. :-)

Yeah Dave, Tuscon is 5 to 10 degrees cooler in the summer than Phoenix and 5-10 degrees warmer in the winter. Cool part is, you're only a few miles from the border to get good fireworks to play with....:LOL:

I have a friend in Canada who is retiring soon, and wants to move to a warmer climate. He has lived in Canada all of his life, but enough is enough. He is looking at Vegas, Phoenix and Tucson.

I recommended Phoenix for the reason that he is a nostalgia Funny Car racer. The drag racing community is larger there, and it has more supporting industry. For all other reasons......Tucson. :-)
