I knew it was going to be a good turn out...low humidity.
We had a few... new never before seen cars!

Bruce, I didn`t see your request for a group shot until I goy home tonight, we`ll get the group shot next time.

I apologize if some of the cars are repeat cars, from prior threads...but some cars are just too nice looking and desreve a second, third, and fourth look.

Bruce`s L78 Chevelle

Dan, without a doubt, that was the best night I've had in along time. What surprised me the most is the fact that my son didn't want to leave. We pretty much closed the place (and did some repairs http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif). The amount of members that gathered in the bank lot was amazing. It was a true family environment. This is what the hobby is all about.

Yes in deed! There were a lot of great cars at Lombard that Dan and Rick clicked off and many more. Next Saturday night "American English" is playing at the band stand for those in the area that can make it. Weather permitting, this weeks show will bring large crowds and more cars. It is a nice show to see good friends and meet new ones.... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Some dark clouds rolled overhead but it never rained. The storm went a little north of us. We got hit hard the next morning with a microburst and 60 mile an hour winds. Lost a nice pine tree in my back yard.
