    Isn't the first show a great experiance!? I still get a charge out of meeting everybody amd talking cars. Nothing like a 60's post car to make your blood boil! Nice looking car, looking awefull "CoPo"-ish eh? Very cool, I too would like to see a pic of the engine.

    Yeah it was pretty cool driving in there...I was pretty much clueless as to what to do besides NOT run over any spectators... It's funny seeing people check out YOUR car too...weird. I also spent more time talking than I did looking.

    65cayne, the people 50 and over are going to be some of your greatest fans, so get a chair and sit back and enjoy it. They are the ones who grew up with your car or maybe even owned one like yours and when they see it the memories will begin to flow. That's the way it is whenever I take my 57 Olds to a show.

    However, when I take the 34 Plymouth to shows, people look at it, comment on it, but rarely know what it is. Most were not around when the car was built or on the road. After all it is a young 73 this year.

    Here's an alternative to flags.
    Then an engine shot you can "borrow", probably looks close enough.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Bob, I just noticed your signature, "I enjoy anything that turns money into noise".

    Does that mean you buy a lot of beans ?
