Default Car show photos - August 7th

Here's a few car show photos I took on August 7th. The show was at Graves Island, Nova Scotia...

I've not been on this forum much lately nor has the Vette been getting much attention as I've been a little depressed about Mom's cancer returning. And I've been opting to spend as much time with her as I can...

1958 Chevy Impala



My friend Pat's 1959 Corvette


1967 Corvette Sting Ray


My friend Bill's 1968 Dodge Charger

Great shots, some interesting cars there! A good diversion from your troubles.

Thanks for posting! (Love that beat up old green truck, sometimes a vehicle like that is just as cool as the perfectly restored ones)

Nice pictures. Thanks for posting.

The '58 Impala reminds me of the one in American Graffiti.

Good luck and prayers to you and your mother. I know what you're going through because I've been there and done that. Doing it again right now with my step mother. Hang in there.

If that thing fell down a well, you'd pump ugly for a month!

Thanks for the pics Ken...
Sorry to hear about your Mom, prayers with you and her. Too much of that every where...we have had our round with my stepfather (I was blessed with two Fathers, both gone now.)

As always and to reiterate Kevin's comment...I love Pat's '59..I still would like to know what the paint code is...I think my new black leather gut would look good with that color. Provided I ever get that far along..

Stan..

If I see Pat at the show & shine I'll question him once more... I believe he purchased the car about 3 or 4 years ago & it was already painted that color...
