Title: Father's Day Car Show
Post by: Laser Man on June 20, 2016, 08:31:47 AM

The town next to mine has an annual Father's Day car show.  They block off several downtown streets and display over a hundred cars.  There were lots of Corvettes, Porsches, and BMWs, but also Austin Healeys, three VW Beetles, a 1973 Dodge Polara station wagon, an 1974 Pontiac Grand Am (with the original window sticker showing a price of $4,770) and a Ford GT40 (I'd post a picture of the Ford, but the file is too big)

It was a beautiful morning and a great time looking at the cars.  One common sight was a dad dragging a couple of little kids along saying "dad just wants to look at one more car!"

This is the one I was at, for 3 days. Over 12,000 cars.

I think I'd OD if I had that many cars to look at!
