Quick Trip – Labor Day 2013 – Classic Cars

So it’s Labor Day Weekend.  The unofficial end of summer. (I’m guessing it’s because there isn’t another holiday until November – no one celebrates Columbus day any more).

End of summer or not we took a quick trip to a small town south of here and of course on a beautiful Arizona day (80 degrees and sunny) the classic cars come out.

Take a look:

Not Just one Ford Delux....

Here’s nice looking 427 parked outside the food ‘co-op’.

I'm pretty sure that this isn't  Andy's car,but I love looking (too bad it's not a coupe).  Notice the NCM on the rims.

    I like the old Fords but there is something special about that 58 Bel Air. Looks better than the Impala’s of the same year to me.

Let me hear from you!!! Drop a note!!
