Birds in a truck1111

Post by Frosty_SPL »

from monday evening to thursday afternoon i have been riding with my dad, and pet birds, to ontario CA. We took hwy 40, which is along alot of route 66. There are cool looking run down old gas stations along the way. Also found out that the temp in the desert is really cool. (northern tx, nm, and az)

Im tired. Spent 5 hours today (thursday) unloading all their crap. Good thing my mom has the interweb hooked up here. 8)

I took some pics from the roadtrip. mostly scenery shots. Texas had the coooolest rest stop, compete with free wifi. I will post them up later.

Going to try to hit up some shops tomorrow.

that is all.

Crap i forgot my camera!

Went by aspec today. I felt dumb because they didnt have a showroom, but they were nice enough to show me around their warehouse. Its freakin huge, they have soo much kick ass stuff there. Saw their drift car and both of their evos, which are soo badass. Saw my dream wheels which arent too expensive (work xt-7s)

Then swung down to super autobacs. I got a kazama shift knob, an airfreshener and a broadway mirror. Some stuff there is really expensive, and other stuff is not too bad. The sportmax wheels are pretty cheap, i think they had the deep dish 18 in 5 spokes for like 105 each. But the work baller shits are like 700 each. They have alot of cheapo wheels though. I sat in themost badass seat, a suede JIC magic adjustable one, looks like an OEM skyline seat. they wanted 575 i think. They have brides, but the one i saw costs 900. They have alot of truck parts, tires and stereo stuff too. Upstairs they have all the new option vids, awesome d1 diecast models, shirts, autoart models and office accessories, automotive books, and those jdm car books (rev speed or something). I was going to get one but they wanted 27 bucks.

It seems like trucks are huge here. Im kinda wanting one too. There are alot of nice lifted trucks with 20s and big meaty tires. I see them more than modded imports. I did see a dope 330 bimmer with a roof spoiler and maya wheels.

Then hit huntington beach. lots of cool shops. I found the most badass nikes ever, but no one had them in my size DAMMIT!!!

doods, there are so many super hot girls here too.

Tomorrow i gotta find a record shop and buy the best hiphop songs ever!!!! Chicken noodle soup by Dj Webster and Got my vans on by wolfpack. The hiphop station here (power 106) is so much better than the ATL stations. They play the newest stuff and old stuff as well.

OH OH, hot import nights is going on in LA tomorrow, should i go? Its prolly the best car show as far as quality is concerned.

ah crap, i didnt check this till tonite. I will call him sunday.

yea it was alot of fun. tons of nice cars there, and tons of hot girls, and also skanks.

Nisei is tomorrow, but im not going to go. I would have went to that instead though. Much nicer jdm styled cars.

I did see this guy i know from nashvegas, who takes pics for HCI and tunerzine there.

I will post pics eventually. They are probably crappy due to the smoke and non zoom camera, and my lazyness.

Also went to costa mesa at this place called "the lab", a little shopping area where i copped some dope nike sb's. After the car show met up with a guy at old pasedina, which was dead for some reason.

Flagstaff is really nice. Before you get there, its pretty desert-like, then BAM! shitloads of pinetrees everywhere.

Great pics man. I hope to make it out to California sometime. Looks like a pretty fun little drive if you have company.
