There's a familiar blue hood in that picture! She looked good that weekend. Especially with those "new" sail panels!

Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event

Yeah,the wheel color was something I came up with a few years ago...powdercoated the opposite part of the spoke,and matching the gloss paint,unlike the factory flat color on the inside part of the spoke...also the facets of the wheel as well...as for the "thingy" on the rear, its a solar shade(aftermarket obviously),and painted to match...people are 50/50 on that,but Ive had it so long that I tend to like it...

That picture was from the group that went to Third Gen Fest this year, right? I recognize your car from there, and Xpendbl3 (Steve) on the trailer.

It's not very pretty (yet) but here's my project at it's first car show about a month ago. Maybe one day it will look as nice as all the other cars in this thread .

Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event

Its an old pic, but everybody kept getting stuck in mud at the entrance, and someone in a pickup truck wheelspun and splattered mud over someone elses car it was all laughs tho. I was lucky enough not to get stuck.

I've turned away from shows that have the entrance on a dirt road leading to a parking area. If it's dry, it's a dusty mess, if it's wet, mud. Organizers of car shows need to think about things like that. The 2nd gen in the top right of your pic shows a muddy mess on his rear quarter. I would've left before going in.

Agreed Scott, most of us would not have even went in that entrance especially after the time and hard work we go through to get our cars ready for something like a show.

I know people who dislike shows on blacktop because it is brutal sitting with your car on a 90 degree day. I dont care for grass either, especially after it has rained recently, the entrance gets muddy. I guess a partly cloudy, rain free day on black top is best, if you could choose.

Or a parking lot with shaded, grassy areas behind the car!

Today at the 30th anniversary IROC display at Carlisle GM Nationals 2015! I met Jerry Palmer, designer of the third gen Camaro, and had him sign my dash! Super nice guy!

That is so awesome Kern. I hope you thanked him for all of us for designing one kick *** automobile. I wonder if he has ever been on TGO.
