Zippi Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 This local car show is held every month at Arby's and it's the last show for 2021.
iamsuperdan Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 Some really nice stuff there! That black mid-80s Cougar is SWEET. Want.
RSchnell Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 That '58 Buick Wagon is great! You sure don't see those around much......
espo Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 Beautiful looking rides. I like seeing some of the '40's and '50's cars shown here.
TransAmMike Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 Really great looking cars at that event and your pick-up looks great Bob. That 'Vette in the pic with your truck is a stunner too. If I had to pick one car to take home it would be a hard choice. Heck, if I had to pick 5 it would be tough. Thanks for the pics my Friend!!

You bet. That Vette setting next to my 49 is my friends 81. It has a pretty healthy 350 in the business end.
misterNNL Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 Thanks for posting these. I personally am drawn to the stock bodied model T Fords as so few are seen that aren't cut up.

misterNNL Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 I recently read an article about the paint used on the mode! T Fords. A fellow bought an old garage that had been a Ford garage at some point in it's past. Among the stuff they found was some new old stock cans of OEM Ford paint in their original containers. The color marked on those can were indicated as being blue,green and brown. They decided to open the cans and following the instructions on the cans they painted some parts as a test. When the paint dried guess what happened.... All parts dried BLACK. A!most funny in a way. From what I have read Mr.Ford actually preferred using black because it dried the quickest thus shortening factory build time. No proof of that of course so possibly only a urban myth.
