Wow!!! We just walked in, returning from the car show, We had hoped for 40-50 cars, but ended up with 75! Gotta order more dash plaques. We also had a few vintage Triumph motorcycles
I took 160 photos, my daughter took another 50. Not digital, so we're getting kodak picture-disc processing. That takes a couple of days. There was a professional photographer hanging around. He promised me copies of his work, too
For a little local show, we did pretty well. We can now officially call it the Glendale Auto
International car show! We had a right hand drive 1969(?) Dodge Charge Daytona that had been shipped from New South Wales, Australia... very very cool. The owner claims it is the only one in existence. We had a 1979 VW Beetle convertible originally from Germany. We had a 1960(?) Austin Mini 1000 (right-hand drive) and a British Ford panel truck (also right hand drive).
The oldest car: 1917 Model T
The oddest vehicle: an old army troop transport converted into a party limo (it's sound system provided music for the show.).
We served hot dogs and lemonade, cake and cookies (coffee and doughnuts for the early birds). We had three entries into our annual chili- cooking competion. Will Kinney won again with a tasty, chunky chili that had a long, hot aftertaste. Good stuff!
We busted the show up at 3 pm, just as it started to sprinkle. Up until that time, we could not have asked for a more pleasant day.
When I get the picture discs, I'll start posting pictures. Watch for a new thread with those later in the week!
