The members of Mercifuls So Cal car club did it again. The 13th Annual ABC/7 Spark of Love Toy Drive Car Show was a huge hit with truck and trailer loads of toys for the Long Beach Fire Department’s Spark of Love Toy Drive.
This year the show was an honor to our fallen brother Kevin Studer with a display of two of his vehicles. His wife Laurie, son Jacob and his wife Sierra and their two girls brought Kevin’s ’56 Ford pickup full of toys!
Big thank you to our raffle sponsors for their support: Catalina Express, Disneyland, Meguiar’s, Mothers Polish, Chemical Guys, Ace Hardware/Lakewood, Custom Autosound, Griswold House, LB Sultans, Pickups Limited OC, CPP, C10 Club + Family, United Pacific Car Parts, Early Times CC, 10-Mile Brewing, Historical Society of Long Beach, Bob Peters Fire Protection and Mike with the Magic Castle, Larry the Toy Guy, and FiTech.
Trophy girls Pinky Swear and Cherry Doll added a touch of class to the trophy presentation with trophies built by Rod “Rockhead” Sexton.
Of course a Christmas Party wouldn’t be fun without Santa. Santa Tim joined us this year and made it a festive occasion. I suggest him for your next holiday event. Everyone got a full belly from the LB Fire Department’s Stuff a Boot Pancake Breakfast! Pancakes, sausages, OJ and Milk topped off the coffee and donuts earlier.
AND ALL THAT IN A MERE 3 HOUR SHOW!
