Family + Friends + Cars = a very fun weekend. Sure, it would have been nice if it hadn't poured down rain all the way to the beach on Friday, but I think that just made us feel extra lucky when it didn't rain for the car show on Saturday. (Well, okay, maybe a little sprinkle, but certainly not much on Saturday.) My friends in attendance included Jamie's 66 Chevelle, Billy's 68 Camaro, and Kerry's 68 LeMans. And, in addition to our cars, there were lots of great cars to see at this year's Seaside Muscle Beach Cruise-in. Hey, I even won $100! (Actually a beach towel that looks like an oversized 100 dollar bill, but I'm not complaining!) Be sure to check out the large amount of pictures in the album titled "Seaside 2009" on the right side of this page.

Nuthin' but tail lights
- At the Long Beach Rod Run this year, I started noticing all of the unique and interesting shapes and styles of taillights on classic cars, so I decided I would focus in on just that feature of many of the cars, and make an album of nothing but pictures of the back ends (tail lights) of cars. Some are stock tail lights, and some are custom. See if you can name the make, model and year based on only the look of the tail lights!
WCCC BBQ 8/14/10
- August 14, 2010. A gathering of Cougar owners (and their cars) at West Coast Classic Cougars in Brooks, Oregon. Then we cruised to the home of a fellow Cougar owner for a BBQ. Lots of fun!
O.C. Hilltop
- This is the first time I've attended this annual event sponsored by the Oregon City Danielson's Thriftway. The day was quite warm, and there was a large variety of cars in attendance.
PIR Cruise-in 8/1/07
- This is a well run weekly event, that is always well-attended. Probably around 500 great cars there this evening. This was my first trip out with my new wheels and tires. Billy brought his Camaro, and Jamie and Alex came along too. It was a great evening.
Muscle Beach 2007
- For the second consecutive year, I took the Cougar to the Muscle Beach Cruise at Seaside, Oregon. This year, like last year, Billy brought his Camaro. Despite some rain, we all had a good time.
Seaside Cruz-In June 2006
- Along with Kerry in his 1968 Lemans convertible, and Billy in his 1968 Camaro, (and Dave, Alex, and Jamie too!), the Seaside Muscle Beach Cruise In served as the "coming out" party for the newly restored Cougar.
The Restoration 2003-06
- With the help of many friends and my family, the restoration process began in 2003. These pictures are in random order.
The years of decay 1987-2003
- College and career meant dependable, sensible transportation for me, and the Cougar went into a vegetative coma for many years.
A new coat in '83
- The silver paint job on the silver Cougar was not well done. I decided to have it repainted to its original maroon color in the summer of 1983.
The "Silver" Cougar in '82
- I was soon the proud owner of this silver 1967 XR7. A factory 4 barrel 289 with 4 speed manual transmission car. My friend Alex chased down the previous owner when he saw it drive by shortly after my crash, because he knew I wanted another Cougar. Thanks Alex!
The First Cougar 1982
- I bought my first Cougar in June of 1982. On September 11, 1982 a car ran a stop sign, and I hit it at 50+ MPH. My friend Jamie and I escaped with relatively minor injuries. In the crash picture, notice the cracked windshield from my friend Jamie's head on the passenger side. I got to have stitches on the inside of my mouth from my face hitting the steering wheel. That was the end of my first Cougar.
1963 Chevy II
- This was a fun little 6 cylinder/powerglide car I bought already partially restored, but mostly disassembled in 1985. I got it painted, reassembled, drove it everywhere (even to Southern California and back), then sold it in 1987. Many great memories of this car.
Batmobile
- October 2006
