As you all know, the last three Bugs & Brats have had a certain problem with precipitation in varying degrees. In an attempt to avoid that this year, we've moved the date out to October 15. The guys from Crimson Pig BBQwill be joining us again this year with their award winning menu.
The date isn't the only thing changing this year, for the show. Bugs 'n Brats 6 will be the first where we'll be giving out trophies. Everybody, spectator or participant, will be voting on their favorite car. The three with the most votes will recieve a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place trophy, designed and built by none other than your friendly neighborhood Snoopy.
This will also be the first year that we'll be doing a MOTOR BLOW! If you were at Bug'n In July a couple months back, you'll remember that the motor blow lasted all of about 2 strokes before it blew through the top of the case. Rather anti-climatic, to say the least. Well, as likely as that is to happen from time to time with these old ragged-out motors, we felt pretty bad about it. So Crazy Uncle Floyd is building another Blow Motor for Bugs 'n Brats. You can sign up for running times on the Pool-Board, with half the proceeds going to the winner and the other half benefitting the Shelby Humane Society.
Come on out, and have a nice laid back day of fun, friends, food and cars. Take a tour of the shop, share your ideas, ask questions and sample Spook's specialty, The "Meatloaf of Death", but this year with some of Snoopy's home-grown Jalapenos. We'll have plenty of airkooled goodies for sale, and please leave your alchohol at home, because this is a family event.

1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL
Introduced in late 1966 for a short, single-year production run, the 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL holds a special place in the “Pagoda” lineage (W113 series) as the rarest variant, with only about 5,196 units built. Positioned between the earlier 230SL and the later 280SL, the 250SL…

1958 Porsche 356 Speedster
The 1958 Porsche 356 Speedster marks the swan song of one of Porsche’s most iconic and minimalist models. Originally introduced in 1954 at the urging of U.S. importer Max Hoffman, the Speedster was designed to be a low cost, lightweight, stripped-down entry sports car that could double as a weekend racer, especially for the California sports car scene. With its low windshield,…
