The Rukkus isn’t just a car show – it’s an entire
weekend of celebration, kicking off on Thursday
night. As always, our hosts the JunkYard Pirates
start the weekend off with a gathering at Mr. D’s on
the west side of town. On Friday night, the action
was at Vamp’d, a rock ‘n’ roll nightclub owned by
Danny Koker of Count’s Kustoms and star of the TV
show, ‘Counting Cars’. Among the festivities was
music from the phenomenal Johnny Cash tribute
band Cash’d Out, as well as the fi nal chance for
ladies to qualify for the title of Miss Rukkus 2016.
