The Weekend Warrior made its first appearance in style by sporting some new pinstriping and a fresh coat of primer.
High temperatures in the 80s, beautiful girls, blue skies, and 650 of the West Coast's best trucks. What does this mean? This means, you're at the Forbidden Fantasy 10th Annual Show 'N Shine at the Perris Fairgrounds. This year had much better weather, but the same atmosphere you can always expect, and it was laid back and relaxing. People came from all over the country for this year's event and they weren't disappointed. Some out-of-towners were overheard saying if all shows in Cali are this good, they might just want to move here. Who could blame them?
