🐀 Rat Fink Reunion 2024! I've been wanting to check this event out in Manti for years. Great weekend weather for the car show. Rust, rat rods, pinstripes, food trucks, live music, auctions, and the largest selection of Rat Fink merchandise anywhere. It's cool to see how much of an influence Ed "Big Daddy" Roth had on the style of car culture and the art of hot roddders over the years. Definitely check out the museum if you're ever in the area to get a small look into Eds creativity (and positivity). He had a larger than life personality. They also have literally hundreds of shirts and stickers to choose from

A few of the random cars spotted from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 and St. Thomas 🇻🇮
Vehicles like these flashy pimped out school buses (guagua escolar) and the converted truck/safari/taxis and Toyota Coaster vans help move the bloated masses from their floating buffets at port to the natural waterslides and zip line adventure excursions all over the small islands.
I even spotted my own little MX5 in Old San Juan 😊
Back on board, the cruise ships always host watch events (75% off today only! Duty free!) Spotted this cool Austin Healy/Frederique Constant combo ⌚️

🇵🇷 🇩🇴

Escaping the snow at the . It's the closest thing to we can get for a few months. Nice to see a few new enthusiast cars still being made with a manual 👌
Can't wait to see what fans do with the VW bus.

The long dormant and forgotten is very much alive and well. The gents made an early morning canyon drive up to for birthday bagels, camaraderie, mountain bikers, slow SUV's and fresh air. (2 wheels allowed)

What about those angles?! Super clean 1979 MK1 Rabbit shows that sometimes less is more. A few more ponys under the hood thanks to Callaway performance. Interior features vinyl seats and faux wood trim with old school AM/FM radio and classic Golf ball shift k**b 👌 #volkswagen #vwlove #vwgolf #vwlife #vw #vwmk1 #volkswagenrabbit #vwrabbit #mk1rabbit #mk1vw #hothatch #Callawaycars #curryandcars #currypizza #currypizzalehi #utahcarscene #utahcarculture #utahcarshows #utahcarshow #utahcars #utahisrad #801carscene #801cars #carshowutah #carenthusiast #carenthusiats #carlover #carlifestyle #slc_carspotting #carsofinstagram

Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?
Enjoying life in the finer things club, this Rolls Royce produces an amazing 172 hp from its V8! 😳 Style over speed

👀:

Check out this tiny truck (single seater!) with 10" wheels and 30 hp? This 1200lb Daihatsu Midget kei truck has a 4 speed manual 3 cylinder. The front end has googly eyes and a spare tire on its nose. And it's adorable ☺️

What would use this for?
Grocery getter? Costco runs? Bike lane driving?

Clean 1 owner Mazda F-150? 🤔

I don't remember this one from the Ford/Mazda collaboration years

Training the next generation how to do a proper burnout as you exit the local Cars & Coffee 👏

What did you learn to drive in?
