It was a perfect weekend for the car show. Over 250 vehicle showed.

There were 10 (really 9) in my class if you count the VW pumpkin Scirraco. (litterly they had it painted orange and had a magnetic jack-o-lantern on the hood.

I got 2nd and 3rd in my class. I got beat out by a REALLY nice OCC chopper (I even voted for it, LOL)

There was 3 custom cafe' racer bikes, a really cool Schwinn moped conversion, a turbo-Honda car, a turbo Harley and the OCC chopper.

Afterwards, there was a charity cruise for the flood victims. We took the Tacoma to that.

The top of my head got fried, but it was a beautiful day, partly cloudy and about 70* with a nice light breeze.

Here are some of the vehicles. I thought I had one of the OCC chopper but I couldn't find it. I was bummed because it was a cool bike.

Here are some of the shots of the car show:

This was my second favorite ride, it is an A-Gasser repro. He did it up right:

Here is the hardware I brought home:

This car was my favorite of all of them. It is a C6 Corvette chassis, and a body style of the 59-61. A company called Classic Reflections Coachworks makes a carbon fiber body moulded. You remove the stock body and this body is moulded back in using the stock C6 interior.

I was talking with the guy who owned the car. It only runs a little under $70K to have this done to your C6. I said that wasn't bad..he then said that is not including the C6...you furnish the donar C6 and they convert if for $70K....WOW! That is a LOT of coin.

It looks REALLY cool though:
