Default Enjoyed a car show today.

Went to a charity car show today and entered the car for the first time after a year long process of mods. Thought there would be more Vettes, but alas...it was swamped by Mustangs, Mustang GT's, Mustang Boss's, Mustang V6's, 80's Mustangs, 90's Mustangs, 00 Mustangs, 70's Mustangs, 60's Mustangs and even Restro Highway Patrol 5.0's. Only 3 Vettes, One C6 ,one C5, one C3.

your car looks great. that '57 fuelie peeking out there looks pretty classy too, black with cragar s/s wheels. nice.
but tell me, was it your camera, or did someone actually paint the "egg crates" orange on an otherwise nice dark red '72?

Yes he DID! That 72 was originally that orange color but the previous owner decided to change it to a metallic burgandy. The current owner is just happy to have it.
