ARC (Auto Restorers Club) Car Show 2/10/2018 Photos
I found out about this show last year. Didn't expect much, but I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived to fine 400 - 500 cars on the lot, AND a swap meet! I didn't stay long last year, but this year I did. Shot over 200 photos (249, but I did not keep them all) and had an awesome time. The variety of cars at this show was impressive. I arrived around 7 AM and my didn't find myself losing interest until around 2:30 - 3 PM. At most shows, I become bored after 3-4 hours, but not this one.
ARC is a club in Sun City West. Yup, mostly "more seasoned" car guys and girls, but they run an extremely organized show. And there was always a crowd walking around the show field. I've enjoyed all of the recent eBay posts and Craigslist posts, so I thought I would return the enjoyment. It's an eclectic mix! https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9186-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9187-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9188-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9189-X2.jpg Check out the BMW 6! https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9190-X2.jpg Sweet Coronet! https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9191-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9192-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9193-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9194-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9195-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9196-X2.jpg 64 El Camino https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9197-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9198-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9199-X2.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9200-X2.jpg Gray looked good on this. https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars/6th-...00_9202-X2.jpg Continued......................................... ............. |

Every once in a while, you run across an exhibitor that is totally awesome, and the owner of this '59 is just that. She inherited this car from her father and, when she received it, performed only the repairs needed to make it safe to drive and presentable. The original interior is nice, and was protected with that clear seat cover material of the day. It was removed because it was in bad shape. The engine was rebuilt year ago. Otherwise, only maintenance items were replaced. I enjoyed talking to her and gave her info on where I would post these photos. This was the first time this vehicle has been displayed!
