SOUTHRNFRESH 4 Coverage: Part 2
I feel like every posts I have to start out with “sorry for taking so long”. But it has been a really busy few months in this region, there seems to be an event every weekend of some sort, which is something we are not used to. Its good to have all these events going on so close to home. The only bad part is that most of them are so close together and we still have regular jobs that we have to go to. So updating the site gets pushed back, while we try to make it out to these events. We really are happy that we have so many groups starting to plan events, and really get this region thriving and give people some options. But enough with the excuses and on to photos.

SOUTHRNFRESH 4 COVERAGE PART 1
The biggest compliment we receive about our events is the variety. We have always wanted to unite every type of automotive culture into one house. We are slowly getting to that point.
Whether it is a F150 shown here or the VW posted above, there will always be a place for it on Southrnfresh. The goal for SF was always uniting the whole automotive community in this region and build a solid foundation.
Last year we handed out awards for a few categories, and many people asked about that this year. But we did not do any of that this yea. Because the idea of that kind of interrupted what the whole event was about.
This event is and will always be this way from now and forever. There will be no awards, no pre screened vehicles. We thought of taking the time to place some of the better cars in certain areas. But as the cars rolled in we realized that there was no need to.
Being so busy and running around all day, I never really took in the amount of quality vehicles that came out until I got home and looked through the photos. Alexander Grant’s Mazda RX7 was one of the many cars that helped keep the quality level high.
It was a pleasure to finally have Russel bring out his NSX to one of our events.
Juan’s Datsun 620
Tommy Reichelderfer’s Mazda Miata creation
The Miata is constantly being evolved with the ’32 Ford front end. Every time we see the car it has progressed and the vision becomes clear.
Emily Reichelderfer’s (sister of Tommy Reichelderfer) 1J powered Toyota Cressida
Tony’s LS leaves the little kid in a daze..

I saw the start of this car months ago, glad that it all came together. When I saw it last they were trying to figure out the wheel specs to have them fit the body, and not have large amount camber. They seemed to have gotten that worked out.
Dustin Jennette’s S13. In a year he has dumped the ole Sr and went LS.
Nick’s E46 on Work Equips
Front shot of Larry’s Q45. Larry and Bucky from Superstar Customs spent a lot of time putting this car together. I have gotten to know Larry pretty well over the last few years. Many people can call Larry a lot of things, but a half-asser is something that he will never be or settle for.
I have seen this car progress from the basic wheels and suspension to this VIP creation. For the first time I can tell that Larry is finally satisfied with the Q45.
Justin Butera’s Koenig Monster on the Superstar Customs LS400
We had a few muscle car classics come out this year. This Chevelle from Tennessee
The iconic Mercury Cougar
Ethan Collin’s Ford Falcon
Legendary Dodge Charger R/T
Batyias Smith’s turbocharged NSX
Many of you may have seen Marty pulling his daughter around in this hot rod stroller creation. The idea of this creation came from Cutworm Specialties Aluminum Dually, which had been first seen at Southrnfresh 3 last year. Well this is a photo of Jeb Greenstone of Cutworm Specialties and Marty checking out the carrier. I really am thankful that Southrnfresh has been able to help create relationships between people that may not have ever happen.
Bryson Richard’s of Wagenwerks Civic inspired by Aryton Senna’s Mp4/4.
Tommy Phamm’s TSX after the rain stopped. The next post will have all the photos from when the rain started to pour. It made for a interesting set of photos. Hopefully it wont take another week and a half to get it up for you guys. As always thanks for looking!
