20th Transport Show Coverage Part 2



On the 2nd part of my Transport Show Coverage... Old School... some more entries.... and some things I didn't like...


Old Is Cool!!!


Datsun Z!!!



Dom Ochoa's Mini...

























Some notable entries...









Now, this EG caught my attention, it has a nice charcoal grey paint, excellently applied, kudos to the painter. BUT!!!





The 90's called, they want their style back. Quit it with the psuedo functional body kits already...sheeesh!




Although engine bay's not too shabby....


Well, that's it for my coverage of this year's Transport Show. Special thanks to Hazardboy and JDMU for some of the photos.

20th Transport Show Coverage Part 1



The 20th Edition Transport Show promises to be "THE" Automotive event of the year since its already been 20 years since Ms. Sophie De Los Santos conceptualized her baby. It keeps on getting bigger and better.


I was eager to go to SMX yesterday as early as possible to take pictures without the big crowd and the different Car Show Models taking up space. I arrived around 10:30 in the morning, 30 minutes after the gates open, I was amazed that there were already people inside the convention center. I planned to stay there the whole day to be with my JDM Underground friends, check out my friend and soon to be business partner Jasper Javier's entries representing his shop Wipeout Autocraft and accompany Mark "uncle" Luna in his All Mugen EK SIR entry. 


Enough blabber... here are the entries that caught my attention...


Rex "Mast3r" Tan's Monster EG








 The devil is in the detail...






































Mark "Uncle" Luna's All Mugen Civic EK SIR...
