Default USMA Car Show at Dixieland Marketplace

I dragged grumpy and my son Jacob to the Dixieland Marketplace show today. Of course the cameras, yes both cameras, had dead batteries. That problem is being fixed right now.

Not one of the bigger shows, but nice. We were able to put up the canopy and get a little bit of shade from the sun. Met a few nice people and saw some amazing cars that we have never seen before. This man Joe had a 67 Chevelle SS that was this unique shade of blue, not too light and not too dark and it was spotless.

After 5 hours in the sun, it was time for the award ceremony. And I actually won the award for....
Motor you would most want in your car.
My son was so excited, he took the trophy and ran back to the car to show his dad. Another fun show. Tomorrow we are off to the USMA Bass Pro Shop Show at Great Lakes Crossing.

I hope everyone had the chance to spend some time with their car today.

See Ya Cruising.....

Was fun and meet some cool peoples. Ray and his wife ( sorry forgot her name ) were really nice folks. Their Chevelle was awesome as hell. That Dart motor putting out 700 HP was sweet as hell !

I need to get out to my shop and take the vert for a cruise ,havent driven it since Chevellabration .They have just about killed my back at work these last 3 weeks dragging trees up a mountain and running them thru a big chipper .The logging crew left behind a heck of a mess and we got to clean it up. I just dont know if I can stand to ride very much .

flash just take it out for 15 minutes, go and get some ice cream or something. Just enjoy the time. It's not quantity....it's quality.
