Pavillions. February 2nd, 2014!!

[Xplantdad]

Holly and I went to Pavillions and met up with Rick there. We parked next to John Hill and Rick. We met up with Shaun, Mike &quot;Greenbelt* &lt;&lt;&lt; (Holly's name for him <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif ), Dave Oscher, the Pavillions crew, Kevin DeWitte and a few others...

The weather was cool, but kinda got nasty later on...and people left pretty quickly. We were treated to some awesome clouds and weather to the north and east a bit, but we didn't get any rain in out area. It was actually snowing less than 20 miles north of where we were!

John Hill brought out his wonderful 1969 SS396 L89 Chevelle for this week.

the top of the cowl being painted stripe color is a Van Nuys thing, it makes it easy to determine a real 1st gen Z28 or Z-11 without the cowl tag codes that the Norwood cars had. The Norwood cars had body colored top of the cowl with stripe color overspray only in the vent areas.
