Here is TClovis (with his oldest son) and myself with our plaques yesterday. I took 2nd and Tony took 3rd in the Camero Class. When I sent the registration in I asked to have it spelled correctly for next year. MY info tag for the car had Camaro spelled right, but no one elses's did. Nice show with 500+ cars.

Congrats to the both of you! Not too many car shows around here and at the most the draw no more than a few dozen cars. But it's fun anyway.

Very cool Gery - I have a shirt from a small local show supporting "guide dogs for the blind" where it's spelled Camero as well as a wine bottle trophy that way too. :yes: it's all good :thumbsup:

Hey Gary,
Congrats on the trophy. I was stuck doing a new sprinkler system all day and wasn't able to go to the show. I cursed the snot out of those pvc pipes all day for it. It's truly a great car show "for the people". Let me know where you'll be at for the next car show. Maybe Kingsburg? Anywhoo, back to the damn backyard.

Gabriel, I will be in Kingsburg next week. The Clovis cruise/car show May 2,3.
A few more pics. My friend Ben owns 3 GT500s and a GT350. He does immaculate work.
We either lost to a 67 w/ SS hood and ralley stripes (uuugh) or a nice 69 Z/28 (with fake RS) and crossram. We were too busy checking our plaques out.

Thanks. I was pretty happy to get an award. There were some nice camEros at that one. My award was spelled the same way. For a show that has been running a long time I was shocked to see how many times it was misspelled.

Well Gary,
I was given a couple tickets to the Long Beach Grand Prix, so I have missed yet another car show. I am hopeless. Any more locar car shows planned in the near future?

May 3 in Clovis. I live in old town Clovis. This sounds like I can't miss. Except there is a pinstripers convention that day. Maybe I'll take a long lunch and check it out. I'm jonesin to walk a car show real bad. I need to rearange my priorities.

You will hear the cruise. The city has given permission for open exhuast. Are you a striper? Do you know Averil?
