Default Few pics from the car show this weekend!

We had a car show this weekend in our local mall, which isn't very big at all, but we had about 15 cars out. I lost by 3 votes to the red chop top Chevy truck! I figured being on the weekend I'd get all the teenage kids going in the mall to vote for me. First off my car, which wasn't too bad since it rained for 3 days straight before the show, I have no garage, and this is my daily driver! It was dirty as hell when my brother picked it up from my job to clean it at about 4:30-5:00 Friday and had it ready to drive in the mall by 9:00 that same night.

These are a few others that were there. This is easily my favorite pic I took!


This is the truck that beat me by 3 votes!


Don't know exactly why this was here but it was ALL original with an inline 6 that was pretty bad ***!




This Chevy had a 502!



Harley Davidson bike 1 of 1. The guy from the Harley dealership said Harley distributes a special 1 of 1 bike to every dealership they have.





Talked to the owner of this car and he said it took 43 coats of paint to get this effect! Don't know how true it is since I don't paint cars but it is nice.

Let me start uploading them to photobucket right now. I used tinypic.com for these but I'll change them.

Adam_346, I want a LT1 WS6 hood but I can buy so much other things for the $800-$1000 I would spend on a hood.
