Pavillions 050507

[Xplantdad]

We went to Pavillions tonight to pass out some of the flyers for the upcoming car show that I am putting on at the Harley-Davidson store on May 18th.

It was a wonderfully pleasant evening with temps in the low 80's...maybe even the high 70's...so both Gary and I decided to take the Chevelle and Camaro out one last time...since the temps next weeks should be in the 100's.

I met up with TXZS (Tex Timberlake and his wife and friend) from the site. Awesome group of people!

I also met up with Sam Griifith...Dave O., Stan, Bob Anderson and Hugh. I was supposed to meet up with Paul Martin (Canuck) but he was having too much fun on the golf couse...good for him!

Okay...here we go!

1969,1968 and 1967 Camaros. I had nothing to do with the placement of these cars http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif (in the background, you can see Hugh's and my Chevelles)

Okay....when was the last time that you saw a 1976 Limited Edition and a 1977 Special Edition Trans Am together...especially two that were UNRESTORED!

At Pavillions...anything can Happen


On the left Dave O.'s 1976..and on the right...Stan's 1977.

Okay...last pic.

It was great to meet up with Tex...and it's always good to see all my buddies at Pavillions...Also cool for Gary to come out and hang with us! Thanks Bro...


So, here it the one and only headlight shot for the week.

I think that you'll agree that it's quite nice...judging by the smile on Sam's face...I think that he agrees...LOL http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Priceless shot of Sam`s smile.....great stuff.

Looks like....what maybe her boy friend/husband might be staring you down Bruce....please be careful....would not want you to get into a scuffle over our viewing pleasure.

Neat car. Late build date in 1970, Hemi Charger R/T 4 speed (one of 56 built) as indicated by the body colored mirrors. I like the buddy seat/no console option and the power windows. (Not an R/T-SE based on the standard black interior without leather or the ultra luxurious artificial woodgrain-like door panels). http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

I think this is the one that was reunited with its original purchaser at a ceremony at SEMA a few years back. I recall that he wanted to buy it back but didnt quite have the half million or so to swing it. He was a teenager in 1970 when he ordered it new (and paid about 1% of the current going rate for the car).

Bruce,
You gotta come to Minnesota. I don't know, maybe it is the overcast skies all the time but we seem to see a LOT more headlights (high beams) out here then you guys have in AZ. Guess I will have to bring my camera to the Car Craft Nationals. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

I'm thinking "original equipment" that still show some of the craftsmanship of the original builder.

Sam's picture on the other hand is the definition of a "sh#t eating grin". This is my favorite "headlight" picture yet. Not because of the headlights but because Sam & Bruce had to feel they were 14 year olds pulling a prank. Just priceless!

Keep up the good work boys. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/headbang.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/headbang.gif

The real beauty of the aforementioned headlight picture is, if you panned right you saw Lynn rolling her eyes http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif and scolding the school boys for their childish pranks. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

..both Gary and I decided to take the Chevelle and Camaro out one last time...since the temps next weeks should be in the 100's."

Bruce, am I to understand that it gets to hot to drive your cars? for how long?
I've lived most of my life in NY and this is the craziest weather I've ever seen. It was in the 70's on saturday so I thought it was summer and uncovered the pool(before we went to opening night at Riverhead Raceway). We had a little Nor'easter last night and tonight is forecast to go back to 34 !! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif\

Dave L., you've got to know that I was "put up" to that shot...Bob kept mumbling something about that Bruce got a better plate than he did...and some other stuff I couldn't understand?

Bruce,

Not sure how long our gig will last. When you really think about it "they" (the collective headlight population) may wonder why one guy, with his wife standing next to him, is taking a picture of another guy and all of these cool cars are everywhere! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif But, I am up for the challenge. If you're not living life on the edge, you're just not livin'!!!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

You got it Sam...We can adjust when the time comes...
