HOT NITE IN THE CITY 2015, KAMLOOPS BC
One hot weekend
I
t’s early in the morning. The sun is shining, the air is clean and a little crisp. You catch a glimpse of polished paint and sparkling chrome on several cars driving by. In the distance you hear the deep rumble of diesel engines warming, awaiting the escort. This is it. The beginning of the 21st annual Hot Nite in the City Show and Shine. We will be featuring muscle cars, hot rods, bikes, vintage cars and trucks, rat rods, exotic sport cars, tuners, sport compacts, collector, big rigs and busses. We do ask that those who come and enjoy the show to respect the time, effort and nances dedicated
to these cars. Please be careful when admiring them. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the sponsors, the City of Kamloops, our behind the scene volunteers and all the spectators for once again being a part of our event. A very special thank you to the participants — locals and those who travelled to our event. Without you, this would not be possible. To the organizing committee that brings it all together: be proud. You have done well. A very special thank you to my wife and family for their patience and understanding. Ron Popove Senior director Hot Nite in The City Society

1986 Corvette
his Corvette was a 50th birthday gift to Marc Chenier from his foster brother and wife. Ever since he got the car he has attended Hot Nite in the City. Marc always loved Corvettes but it was never a priority to buy one so this was one of the greatest things that ever happened to him, he says. He replaced the leather seat covers, replaced the seals for the windows, tore the dash apart, repainted it, re-dyed the carpets and detailed the engine and other miscellaneous things.

T
he story behind Kellyn Baruta’s 1972 Plymouth Satellite: “When I was in high school, a ffriend and myself were out cruisiing around a local salvage yard in D Dawson Creek. After wondering around for awhile, we stumbled across this diamond in the rough. There weren’t m many two-door cars in this yard so, eeven without the bumpers and grille, iit stood out. I wasn’t too familiar with these
18 | 2015 HOTNITE SHOW & SHINE
HOT NITE IN THE CITY 2015, KAMLOOPS BC cars at the time, but after seeing what a completed one looked like I had to have it. It had been sitting in that yard since 1986 by the time I found it. In 2010, after working through the summer, I had saved the $500 to purchase it. It was the start of a very ambitious high school project. Instead of parties or other typical teenaged activities, my weekends were spent replacing quarter panels, or sanding the four layers of old paint away. I no longer had money to party with anyway. The original engine was a 318, and, as the picture shows, not in very good condition, so it was replaced with a 440 big
block powertrain. I wanted to keep the original driving experience, so basically that meant a period-correct type setup. The car has breaker point ignition, genuine bias ply tires — and, yes, even the original AM radio. We chose to nish it in B3 Super blue, better known as Petty blue, as it is a unique color and pays homage to Petty Enterprises team that raced cars like these. Of course, I owe a huge thank you to my dad. His expertise was invaluable. We did everything in house, from the engine to the body, and I think that is an experience that few people can relate to.”

hat was I thinking? When I retired I told my wife I wanted to spend $30,000 to build a $20,000 dollar Hot Rod. She said OK if it got me out of the house. I purchased the car ve years ago. It was a rusty body sitting on an original frame. No running gear. The wood was all rotten and the car was not restorable to original. All wood was removed and replaced with steel. I spent two years collecting parts and then started the three-year Hot Rod project. I wanted the outside to look as close to original as possible. It now has a 600 H.P. Blown 383 Chev engine and a Muncie 4 speed.
For Safety it has 4 wheel power disc brakes, an internal hidden roll bar, Lakewood bellhousing and boxed frame. For comfort it has Southern Heat and air (thanks to Southgate Radiator). I did all the work myself except engine machining by Magnum Machine and Valley Speed. Versatile Upholstery installed an affordable interior. Knowles Exhaust installed the Flowmaster exhaust. Running gear and paint supplied by Lordco Auto Parts. The Hot Rod is to be a driver. A Hot Rod is nished when you run out of money. — Jim Davies
