My First Car Show

[68 SuperRam]

Well this past weekend – I put my 68 Camaro in my first car show – it was a long time coming since I purchased the car in 1997. It has been a very long, costly, stressful, and sometimes frustrating, - did I mention costly – road – but at the end it was definitely all worth it. To stand next to my father (who – for those of you that do not know – had a 68 and it was stolen – it totally hit him hard and he never was the same again – I purchased a 68 secretly while still living with my parents and worked on it every Sat. for years in various different locations. I restored the car to his color – but with all the available current modifications. I told him about the car on his birthday about 2 years ago – as that was when I brought it home from my cousin’s paint shop) – back to my point – to stand next to my father yesterday with the Camaro – was a very special moment for me!!!

I also met “AllFaith” at the show – and it was great to meet someone else – that chats here in the forum – to share stories and ideas, and of course to talk about our rides.

Even though – I did not win any awards – (mainly as I think that I was judged in the wrong category ) – the day was still great!!



I can not wait until the next local show in a few weeks.
