Penticton Beach Cruise 2014

[StriperSS]

This was the weekend of this event, and we were fortunate to have great weather this year.
The first photo was taken this afternoon as I got to spend some time in a Cessna 180, so I took an aerial shot of the venue. Everyone had packed up and gone home by this time.

We sat in a restaurant patio and watched some cruising last night.

A few fairly rare cars were here. This has been a local car for years, and I knew the previous owner. A 73 SS454 Wagon with buckets and console!

There was also an antique machinery and trucks section, and also this old steam powered fire tender. They had it going and shooting water for half a block!

I visited Penticton in the Okanagan Valley a few times back in the 70's on business. Beautiful city and it obviously is a great place for a classic car event. Love the Black Canso. Thanks for sharing John.
