IN MY LOVE OF VINTAGE CARS?
My husband and I go to carshows. I have a 69 suburban. (lovingly referred to as BigRed). We have a 37 Plymouth coupe. Love old cars!!! My son has a Rat Rod (which is what the first truck you pictured is often referred as). We go to the street rod nationals in Louisville every year. There are over 12,000 street rods.....a sight to see.
ReplyDeleteI love the old cars and going to the shows. My husband has a '65 Mustang in the garage that he is tearing apart to fix up... my favorite car!
ReplyDeletelauren, not so much into vintage cars, but i DO love that cream-colored vw that you shared! :-) cream-colored cars nearly always get me. great photos. blessings, ann
ReplyDeleteHi Lauren:
ReplyDeleteNo you are not the only one. My husband and I have a 1960 corvette and he attends car shows almost weekly in the summer. Its fun to ride in it especially when we take it along the Potomac from DC to Mt. Vernon. You would be surprise by the amount of people who do own vintage autos!
My aunt has an old corvette convertable as well and she would do the same thing, if i had a vintage car i think it would be alot of fun to go to the shows!
DeleteWow very cool! I love old cars; I guess it goes with my love of all things vintage. Looks like you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE old cars and trucks! I have a '54 red truck parked out by our barn that I like to use as a back-drop for pictures and my parents have a '29 model A parked in their garage. Love of vintage vehicles runs in the family.
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by Sharon, im glad to see im not the only one that likes these beauties!
DeleteI love old cars too and I happened upon one yesterday. I think I was born too late. I wish I was of that era!

Car shows are really fun to watch. Owners get the chance to showcase their vintage vehicles to the audience. I particularly like the Old Mustang car. It has this classic feel and it looks smashing. It’s truly is a classic American muscle car.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS FOR STOPPING BY STELLE, I LOVE MUSTANGS AS WELL I USED TO HAVE A '65 I BELIEVE IT WAS AND IT WAS A CONVERTABLE, I SHOULD HAVE HUNG ONTO THAT ONE!
DeleteI agree with you Lauren. This sure feels like the set of an old Hollywood movie. I cannot blame you, though. These vintage cars are awesome. They give you that vintage-feel that never goes out of style. Good thing you can still see some of these classic pieces on the road.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS SO MUCH FOR STOPPING BY TO CHECK OUT THE CAR SHOW!
DeleteThose vintage beauties look smashing! Well, good job on the restorations! All the cars look good as new. The owners did pretty well bringing back the glory of these old road horses. Even the paint and the chrome look new and fresh. But what caught my attention is the truck. The restoration looks rather unique, especially with “stitch “style.
ReplyDeleteThat was a great feature of the truck the leather stitching, thanks for checking out the post!
DeleteLauren~~ just showing my husband around your blog and spotted this post! We have a 1930 model A ford in our garage that's a work in progress. Before our kids we had a '64 pickup truck that was really cool and so much fun to drive. We do car show all the time and they are a lot of fun to walk through!
ReplyDeleteNo doubt, my favorite would be the steampunked Chevy! There are a lot of custom car mod concepts, but for me, steampunk is the coolest! The art used notably gave the car a classic, antique appeal from the Victorian era.
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by Gerald to check out the cars. That was my favorite too!
ReplyDeleteI love that steam-punked car too! I bet that the rustic look and appeal of the car did not fail to draw attention from observers in the car show. It just looked so magnetic and unique. Thus, everyone loved it! =)
ReplyDeleteTHANKS FOR STOPPING BY ELLSWORTH, THAT WAS MY FAVORITE AS WELL!
DeleteI like the blurry speed effect on the second photo. It really made the car stand out! It looks so prominent in a way that I just want to stare at it for a while! ;’)
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping over Erwin, glad you liked the pictures.
