Thread: Went to a car show, with pictures.

Yep, you described it perfectly, it looked like a superduty scoop. I am kicking myself for not taking more pictures, but there were so many spectators there that you had to stand around until the crowd parted to get most shots. Next time these cars show up somewhere I'll be sure to get more.

I thought you had a '35 Bob, still have that one?


Don

Here's another picture with the scoop pointing forward on a '59, you can see the chrome grille that they had, should have been on the Pontiac that way too.

Never have had a '35. I've got the '36 roadster, and have had a 5 window coupe that's in my gallery, as well as the first '36 that was a sedan.

Gold chains???? Man, I don't have any gold chains!!!!!!!Is that why the Currvet guys never like me?????I gotta go get me some of them gold chains!!!! Does Sam's Club sell them???

Do you know why 'Vette drivers have to roll down the windows before getting in or out? They have to 'Burp the Tupperware' (c;~

Nice pics, nice run. . . We have 10" snow/ice on ground and -15 outside. Had to change oil in the van in it today. Oh What Fun!

Congrats on the T wins too !

Not so; they're both gorgeous! I would hate to have to judge these two cars against each other. They are both impeccably detailed and CLEAN looking. If the judges were using ISCA show judging sheets, they may have awarded Don Jr. bonus points for the chrome windshield frame and hubcaps. That's the only thing I can think of that would delineate between them... Or maybe they flipped a coin.

Don, your car may be "just a driver", but it's a show quality driver! And so is Don Jr's.

Congrats Don! Also when its in the mid 30's here in Oklahoma its nice to see pictures of a car show where its warm.

It was a great show. Pops left too soon and when they called me up for the 1st place trophy many people offered their assistance as a "character" witness that I won 1st and dad took second Actually pops should have won, but I will take this "default" win I attached a pics of the trophys and a picture of us right before the show. Congrats pops! Thanks to everyone for the compliments on both t's!

Now it's clear how the judging was done. The taller of the trophies to the taller of the two cars, the short and stubby to.......................

Thanks for the show pics Don. That Pontiac was super clean. It was at the Nostalgia Drags/Show in West Palm Beach. Here's a couple of close-up photos that I took.

Don,
Has anyone else verified that you finished second? Who knows, with all of the excitement, Don Jr may have become confused. j/k

Congratulations to both of you. With the competition you had, you should both be very proud.
