This weekend was the car show in the park at the next town over. Registration started at 8:00 so at 7:00 we were loaded up and headed out. Me in my 68 Impala, and my son following behind in his 54 Chevy Bel-Air. My wife took this picture of our son following us on the highway. Rather menacing look in the rear mirror!After we got there we were told where to park, cleaned up the cars a bit, set out our lawn chairs, and began a long day of looking at cars. There was some great cars there (121 in all), and we got to see some friends we haven't seen in a while as well. The weather stayed perfect all day, and we had a great time.
This show draws a lot of newer stuff, and while my taste tends to run towards the older, I enjoyed looking at everything. These I would have liked to taken home with me for sure!
This one really took me back
But the biggest thrill of the day was when the awards were given out and our son was called out for 2nd place in Modified 50s. This was his first trophy and we were all excited for him. But it didn't end there. My Impala was picked 2nd place for stock 60s class! Bringing home a nice trophy for the Road Rockets.
