Now when Rob ( bckNblk) and I started viewing other eye candy things got a little interesting....





 and then when I saw this I emediately thought of you Hammer....


then I thought I stumbled upon a taxicab convention...


was a great day to be with good freinds and also to make new ones...each year there are more and more 2nd Gens coming out of the woodwork... even a TAT/A awaiting a new home for restoration with original buildsheet in tow for 4500... too much to see in one day..

I think the highlight of the show for Rob was getting not just one autograph but several of Nascar Legand Bobby Allison...


there were examples of nearly every generation from mild to wild...
a co workers ride .. all original

That pic of the Spirit of America Nova brought back some memories.  My dad owned one in the mid '70's.  Haven't seen one in forever.

ddmurdock,  the spirit of america nova was all original.. even the paint and decals... no restoration on that one and take a look at the next pic I took of it... yes it was a 3speed in the floor too.



jphillips3333, that one was really nice but the one next to it got my attention a little more.. the ghost flames to me were well done


blue81ta, yes the camaro was total sick here are some other shots as well and also its Garage mate a twin blown prostreet pickup.





I know there are also Mopar fans.... so heres one you dont see often..

was unable to find anyone around that could tell us how much HP it had.... odds are 750+, guaranteed for some permanant grins.

I wouldn't think it's legal though - you'd get a ticket due to the lack of forward visibility.  Great track car ...
