Activities include an apparatus show and demonstrations, giant Kid’s Zone, firefighting demonstrations every hour, Texas’ Largest Firefighter Cook Off, food, music, and real fun all day long. The annual event, a Houston tradition for more than twenty years, is held at the Houston Fire Department Val Jahnke Training Facility on the south side of Hobby Airport.

Hot Rod Projects and New Owner's * Update (7/24/2010) David McDonald's '68 Nova - We've started wiring the car and should have that completed within the next week or so. * Update (7/24/2010) Scott Grant's '72 Buick is now in the paint shop. The bodywork is done and the car is ready for paint. The GSX Clone will be finished soon. Pics will be posted sometime later this week * Update (7/24/2010) Lin Harris has finished the 4"/6" drop on his '69 Chevy truck. The truck has been disassembled and is now at the paint shop. Ron Munoz is doing some trick fabrication to various parts of the truck. The firewall is being filled, the drip rail is being removed and Viper Red paint is the chosen color. Lin discovered that the 327 c.i. engine was junk. He said the one of the crank shaft journals looked like someone worked it over with a hammer. I can't wait to see what fills the void. * Update (7/24/2010) Ash Brock took delivery of his '73 Camaro about 3 weeks ago. It looks nice in the pics...can't wait to see it when this Summer heat heads south. * Update (7/24/2010) Don Decker's '68 Camaro is coming along. The Chevy Rat Motor is done, as is the tranny and 9" Ford rear axle. All the new sheet metal is in place and the bodywork is well underway. * Update (6/26/2010) Thanks to all who attend the HFD Street Machines 2nd Annual Car/Bike Show. There were some spectacular machines at the Brick House Tavern + Tap on that HOT Saturday, June 12th. It was great to see some new blood at the show too. Here are the ones that I can remember.
