Diggin' In The Tapes | PASO Cruisin' Nationals 2005

In this episode we go back in time to Paso! Aka West Coast Kustoms Cruisin’ Nationals!
Every year we planed on our trip to Paso. Countless night getting our cars ready for the 3.5 hour drive to spend
The weekend with likeminded people of all ages sharing the same passion for traditional hot rods and customs.
We jumped in our cars and headed north meeting friends along the way and that year I had the pleasure of driving Bobby’s
Roadster while he drove his Stude truck. Seems like we were all racing the whole way! Once we arrived we hit the A&W
Meet up with everyone and check out what’s new. The show is awesome mix of survivor kustoms and freshly built hot rods
Along with legends hanging out that have been coming to Paso since the 80’s when Rich and Penny started all this.
Something about that show that was very special it was a great time right in the hight of the the scene!
Featuring new scenes and interviews with: Keith Weesner - Gene Winfield - George Barris Dan Collins - Von Franco - Doug Dorr
Sam Foose - Blackie Gegian - Darold Starbird

[@murdoc6501]

Absolutely amazing! A-and you were there documenting it all! Thank you for sharing this! Reminds me of us Baltimore idiots hauling it up to Latimore, PA for the Jalopy Showdown in its infancy. Half the fun was getting the cars ready and the road trip! Kurt Iseli was part of our group, then he went on to write for the Rodders Journal. It's all about the gathering of the tribe, like minded traditional hot rod and custom fools! Thank you again Piero! Go Mad Fabricators, keep moving forward! Also, Matt from Iron Trap was sporting a "Car that Ate My Bran" t-shirt in his Eastwood interview recently!

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

Yeah the journey is the best part sometimes.. and man The showdown was such a fun show.. we will have a Diggin I.T.T episode of that soon!

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

I did see Matt wearing.. haha we are all sending each other shirts to wear on each others channels haha

[@Jordanrhart]

I was 20 years old that year. Watching those cars cruise up Spring St left a huge impression on me!

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

[@joelstinson2886]

Dude, so many custom car superstars in one spot, & you got them on tape. Shit belongs in the Smithsonian. Gg

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

Right? The crazy thing is I totally forgot I interviewed people.. till I watched the tape! Hah I left it out of the DVD for some reason.. probably cut for time..

I remember being there that year, but the writing was on the wall for Paso. Like so many small towns that got gentrified.....

Yup totally.
