Did a prom for a nice young gentleman. Was very hot and the car suffered with vapour lock and would not idle in the q so had to let it cool down then drive him in.

What a fantastic gathering! 😊 I do love these classic car shows, and one of the things I enjoy most is seeing how people are always willing to help each other. It never feels like a competition.

If I can help someone I will. I also try to be nice to everyone, its a nice way to live. I can also talk for days…. Talking about the hobby. Well I am not a pensioner and I am big into the scene.
