Big Poppa 54 Blog

Content for this Blog will start during the summer months. Also we plan to periodically have Guest Bloggers, SME's in a specific area of Hot Rodding to cover various hot rod topics.

What is a Triple DDD Cruise?  
If you've ever watched Diners Drive-Ins & Dives on the Food Network Guy Fieri takes his viewers to some very unique eating spots across the USA.  Some of those spots are located in Napa & Sonoma counties and various cities around the bay area.  So about every 4-6 weeks I will select one of these eating spots and usually we have 5 and not more than 10 couples to cruise to a restaurant, have brunch, and do some shopping, if shopping is available nearby.

Typically I try to plan these cruises to be 60-75 minutes and the lunch/brunch last about 1.5-2.0 hours.  The plan is to schedule 5-6 Triple DDD Cruises between June and Oct  each year.   The dates will be announced in April or May 2021

The Triple DDD Cruise has no car club affiliation, it's just a group of hot rod enthusiasts that enjoy a nice cruise, good food, and a chance to just hang out with other Hot Rodders.

Hot Cars Magazine
Hot Cars Magazine http://www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/672638has had a featured article on the Big Poppa Buick in their December 2013 Issue, and there is an article on our 55 Plymouth BA/GT wagon in the winter 2016 #24 edition

My thanks to Roy Sorenson, Editor, Publisher and Photographer for Hot Cars Magazine for the great pictures of our Buick which we used for our website logo.

This wagon was built for my wife Merianne and it took 4 years to build mostly in our home garage.  My wife loves the wagon but insists, no more hot rods built in our garage. :-)

This VENOM Street Rod belongs to my close friend Ramon Coria.  It took 4 years to build, mostly in his home garage.  VENOM has proven to be a real crowd pleaser at all the shows where it is presented

This 1949 Studebaker belonged to my  good Friend Randy Perez, a legendary Bay Area Hot Rodder, who left us too soon in 2019.
