Seems like a couple of the GM boys didn't make it to the bathroom.

Nice pics, Tom!  :thumbsup:  Your car looked great in person, better than pics can portray.  :grinyes:

It was nice to finally meet you.  Sorry, I didn't get much of a chance to talk to you.  The kids were pawing at me to get going to thier play date.  :banghead:  Maybe I'll catch you at another local show.

Make note to self: go without kids....  :roflsmiley:

Nice little show - thanks for sharing the pics.

That little guy on the early Barracuda really gets around.  I see him leaning on bumpers all over the place!   :smilielol:

The gold '68 Charger belongs to one of my friends whom Tom met.

Turns out I also knew the guy that owned the red Barracuda convertible, Tony.  I met him when I entered a model contest at the World of Wheels this past January.

Yeah Phil was in and out like the flash.

Phil, it was great to finally meet you, maybe someday you can bring your car? :poopoke:

Tom

It was a good day, went there by myself but met a bunch of great people and stuck around for a couple hours.

Chop Shop seems to have quite a collection of oldies going on there and the work looks excellent. :money:

Yup, in and out.  Gotta get to those playdates.  You know who runs the house- the 3 kids!  :bricks1:

Tom,

  Did you get any tickets on the way to the show?   :poopoke:

You might notice I stayed out of that thread.    :misbehaving:

Tom,

  Since I like you, I will confess I've had a few in my day. Each and every one was for speeding. Each and everyone was deserved.   :grinyes:

My personal best was 97 in a 55MPH zone with a 1986 Pontiac Gran Prix with a smogged down 305 engine.

My worst was 52 in a 30 and I got a warning for that one.  I was 17 and driving my 69 Barracuda with cherrybombs.
