Pine Ridge Mall-North Wing: Hungry looking Hot Rods block the Food Court!

During the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024, the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.

Pine Ridge Mall-North Wing: Tri-Five ’55 Bel Air

During the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024, the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.

This 1955 Chevy Bel-Air belongs to a family that paid a whopping $250 for it in 1972!  Of course they don’t say how much they spent to hotrod it; swap-out the original six cylinder for a 350 cubic inch displacement V8, Muncie 4 speed manual transmission, upgrade to power steering and power front disc brakes, BlueTooth radio, etc.

Pine Ridge Mall-Inaugural indoor Winter/New Year Car Show: North Wing!

Due to some instigation (possibly by a secret society of conspiratorial automotive Sith Lords posing as Jedi Masters), the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.

It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.

NORTH WING:

How all those cars got into the mall, video by me:

Pine Ridge Mall-Center Court: Things are getting Hostile!

Due to some instigation (possibly by a secret society of conspiratorial automotive Sith Lords posing as Jedi Masters), the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.

Watch out, it’s a Hostile ’55!

It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.

I didn’t know 1955 was such a Hostile year?

Is it ‘Hostile’ because it’s not a Bel Air?  Video (by me), 13JAN2024:

Due to some instigation (possibly by a secret society of conspiratorial automotive enthusiasts), the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.  It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.

I worked for the original owner of the Pine Ridge Mall during the few years before it was sold to the second owner, an evil global corporation based in Chicago, and we used to have car and RV displays during the warmer months of the year.  But, the evil second owner killed everything off!  The Pine Ridge Mall is on its third owner, supposedly a family company based in Saint Louis, Missouri, which specializes in bringing back depressed malls. The third owners have been working hard to slowly bring in new businesses, and they gave their blessings on this inaugural Winter/New Year indoor auto-show (with a possibility for more car shows!).

CENTER COURT:

Pine Ridge Mall: THE CAR SHOW INSTIGATOR! AND HIS STEED, THE MIDNIGHT CORVETTE!

Pine Ridge Mall: The car show Instigator! And his steed, The Midnight Corvette!

Possibly at the behest of a Motor-Gear-Head Instigator, the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its first ever indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.  It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.

This lady couldn’t get enough of Midnight, her eyeballs were all over that paint-job.
