Clare's official coming out.
To all who might care,
These are the only pictures I took and they were in Ricks shop before and after the show.
The Vette is Ricks and is the same one he owned when I first met him, just a different scheme from the doors back. The black with flames Vette is the one he had when I met him when I was 17.
Here are then and now pictures.
Now, I thought you all might like to see this.
Rick did a fine job and the judging was done under a shelter because it was raining most of the day. Everything was wet; cars, trucks and motorcycles.
I left the plaque with Rick. I had told him if the car ever won in a show he got the first one. Well the first one (plaque) was the first one (show). Plus I don't care for those things anyway. The car for me is to honor my dad and mom... and to drive when I can. Shows are down a ways on the list and winning further down from that. Just having people look and say your dad would be proud is more than enough.
I took no pictures because of the rain (doesn’t make any sense; I take the car out in the rain, but not my camera).
I will be leaving early tomorrow morning (Tuesday, Sept 20th) to drive down with my wife and youngest son to bring her home. I'll hopefully get some nice weather and nice pictures to you soon.
Thank you, Rick, of Crossed Flags Restoration. Without you it would not have happened.
Thank you, NICO, as well for your viewership, comments, encouragements, compliments and ideas. You people truly are a family.
