There was a decent amount of S130's but i only took pictures of the ones that were not there last year. I have tons of pics of them all from MSA 05. The only one I really couldnt get a good picture of was the ZXR cuz there was never a break in the crowd. He was really close to the guy that kept rev'n his motor like there was no tomorrow. Anyways, more pics in a bit

Rod, if you want some more detailed pics of the Z32 wide body Vert, let me know. Jack and Yolonda are friends of mine. That car is truly a beautiful thing to behold. Jack is giving Apollo fiberglassing and mold making lessons.

The fit and finish of the panels is WAY better than any OEM outside of maybe an Italian hand made car.

The coolest part is, every panel is bolt on! He can pull the whole thing off and return it to stock in a couple of hours and a little touch up.

Wow... are all those cars really as pristine in person as they look in those photos?

My 280zx looks really nice at dusk or dawn but just alright at high noon...!

Too bad I have a paintjob scheduled for my Stingray or else I'd have a frameoff done with my 280ZX...!

I'm just going to reinstall the gallery with a clean slate tonight to get you guys uploading pictures.

FYI: The green RB25DETT in the 240Z is Rob from Zcar Garage, they do awesome work. He also has a R34 around

Silvr, how do you know Rob all the way out in Houston?!

The GT-R is pretty cool too... Undisclosed dyno runs though. He wants to keep it a sleeper...

He doesn't take it to the MSA show since it's a show for Z cars...

I caravaned back to the Bay with Rob, Lou, Sean and Kurt Sunday night.

Let's just say, my MPG went down by about 5 considering the different driving styles of that group vs. our original group on the way down to the show...

I've got 300 pics from the show alone. And I think I got all of the S130's that were there.
...but I'm not really going to post them yet. I'm visiting relatives in SanDiego right now.

Thanks for the complement, my car is far from perfect though haha. The school's parking lot is taking its toll on the body. The wheels, I couldn't complain since a pothole bent my previous set, and my bros were nice enough to let me use their spare wheels. Eventually I'll get a matching set of SSR mesh wheels for the front.

you need to paint that guy's car. It needs some help.

I started at one corner of the show and worked my way around. By the time I got back to my car,
Apollo was gone. but someone else posted pics of his.
