Sands Chevrolet All American Car Show 3/20/2011

[CC Rider]

Took a drive out to Surprise to the annual Sands Chevrolet All American Car Show on Sunday. Sands of Surprise is a very large Chevy-only dealership located in the middle of no where! However, there was plenty of room for lots of show cars, displays, and all of the other stuff that goes on at car shows.

Very shortly after I arrived at the show, I began to have a painful kidney stone attack. Most of the time, I can manage the pain by walking, which helps. Also managed to take some pics when I was walking around. However, towards the end of the show, I HAD to leave! Managed to drive home OK, but the last mile or so was torture. I parked the Chevelle in the garage, took a bunch of meds, and was bed-ridden for the rest of the evening. Finally feel OK now to post these pics.

Most of the Chevelles parked together. These are the Arizona Classic Chevelle Club Members.

I'm assuming these are the dealership owner's Chevys. They were all at the far end of the showroom.

That's true Bill! Had a few gully washers up here in Peoria today.

Great coverage, Thanks for sharing. Hope your feeling better.

[markinnaples]

Bro, you take awesome pictures, thank you for all of the time and effort you put in to share with us all.

Man, AZ looks like the place to be for cars these days.

[Xplantdad]

Looks like a great show Rick. Sorry I wasn't able to make it out yesterday.

You should have called when you were having your problems. I would have made it a POINT to get out there

[Dicky]

Rick you are BRUTAL. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/sick.gif Nice pics and show, but done with more fortitude than I would have. Thanks (get better)

Dicky <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif

[flyingn]

nice job on the pictures and I know how your suffering with the kidney stone,. My wife had one recently and it took 3 months for her to finally pass it! Horrible pain
