It’s Not All About Cars, All The Time!!

Sometimes it’s about help others.  This morning it was about two local mom’s/wives stricken with breast cancer and going through various medical procedures.  It was about over 150 people showing up with kids in strollers.  It all happened as the results of an idea by the owners of Skin and Body Fitness (Christine and Greg) here in Tucson, Az. – called the Pink Pumpkin Run (running and walking kids and adults) and Monster Dash (for the kids).  Lots of fun for everyone and even this old guy did well.

This my son and my first 5k together and it was for a good cause.  He and I raised $160.00 for the event.
However, we did drive the Mustang there!!!!

So get out  there and a do a good turn.  You’ll feel good about – and take the classic car and show it off at the same time.

Thanks for reading.

Tucson Cars & Coffee July 2012

We were lucky enough to have a cloudy morning for this month’s Cars and Coffee. The diffused light that the clouds provide makes my job really easy! Enjoy the photos.

27th Annual Chevy Showdown – Videos

As a wrap up here  are some videos.

Ok..this guy is clearly lost…Who brings a Mustang (even an extremely nice one) to an All Chevy Show:

Listen to this Chevy:

Two more to listen too:

And although there were a lot more entries for this show I’m going to end this series with one that brought back a lot of memories. This wasn’t a 1966 like my very first car, but it was pretty closed.  Look over this Impala.

Thanks for reading.

27 Annual Chevy Showdown, Tucson, AZ Part 2 – Corvette Action

Here is Part 2  this is the Corvette action.

First I really liked this striping on this ’77 Vette.

 

Look closely at the next few photos the stripe moves from dark to almost white.

 

 

 

Oh...and the stance on this is just extraordinary!

 

One more 77 .

One on looker called this a plain jane Vette, I told him there's no such thing!!!

 

Here are the 50’s era Vettes.

 

A little video clip…I didn’t add the music.

 

 

And the 60’s Vettes.  The silver 63 is Steve Fagan’s.  Owner of Hot Rods and Classics, located here in Tucson.  They do great work including a lot of my engine work for the Mustang, which helped me win my First Car Show Trophy!!  His Corvette has taken two trophies in the last two shows.

Steve Fagan's 64

Little more of Steve’s StingRay

Steve’s, posted with vodpod

The driver in the red Vette caused a few nervous moments as it took her a few tries to get into that parking spot.

Here’s another shot of the 60’s Vettes

1960's

Coming up next -the trucks!!!
