Default Cops & Rodders Car Show

Went to a car show in Tucson AZ this last Saturday. Weather was great and had a good time. Lots of different vehicles to see. Made a little video to avoid pasting all the pictures.

Thanks y'all. I could have taken more pics as there was plenty of nice cars there but didn't want the video to be a half hour long. It was a pretty cool show.

Okay, but can you wait until tomorrow? I will get the car cleaned up tomorrow (which is the start of my weekend) and see if I can get some decent ones. I need to get some up to date ones anyway.

I got the car cleaned up today but the kids came by and took me out to eat for my birthday. Ran out of daylight so I will get out first thing in the morning and get some.

I'm in the same boat. My Mondays are Saturday nights so I have to take the night off to attend most things. I try and mix it up and attend something I haven't before or recently.

Hey Rollie. I work most Saturday nights so probably won't be out again for while. I will check my vacation book and see what weekends I have off the rest of the year and let you know. I will let you know about this show next year too if I go down for it again.

Thanks

That would be the Medium Pearl Purple, aka Majestic Amethyst Metallic (95U RPO code) color that was only produced in 1998 and only 381 painted as well.
